Re: UTL_FILE Problem

Christian,

some tips:

>filehand := UTL_FILE.FOPEN ('C:\Daten\Output\', 'test1.txt'); -- The
problem seems to be to open the file
is wrong, you need to specify R or W :
filehand := UTL_FILE.FOPEN ('C:\Daten\Output\', 'test1.txt','W');

And, it will be saved on the Oracle server (wherever that may be), where you also need enough rights to write...

the first argument is the directory, without the '\' at the end (eg. '/app/oracle/dump' ) if the server is NT/2000 try leaving the 'C:\' thing

regards,
Michiel
