Re: Maximum length sql statement

weird stuff ..

here's the create statement in question.

CREATE TABLE INVOICE (INVOICE_NO NUMBER PRIMARY KEY, CUST_NO NUMBER NOT NULL, CUST_AGENCY_NO NUMBER NOT NULL, INVOICE_T VARCHAR(2) NOT NULL, SPLIT_I NUMBER NOT NULL, INVOICE_DT DATE , INVOICE_PAY_DT DATE, INVOICE_B_DUE NUMBER, INVOICE_VAT NUMBER, INVOICE_DISC NUMBER, INVOICE_INF NUMBER, INVOICE_SEC_DISC NUMBER,INVOICE_LOC_P NUMBER, INVOICE_NOL NUMBER, INVOICE_COUNT NUMBER); I find *really* weird what you're talking about, I've done some further experementing with sql plus, and the thing is, everything after 2 lines, it ignores... if i try to backspace my way back from line3 to line2, that wont happen either... 2 lines maximum, and if i havent ended the statement by then, then tough luck. If i mess with the buffer width, the number of lines will adjust accordinly to a fixed length of characters. My envoriment is 8.1.6 on windows2000pro

I tried to enter the SQL Via
SQL PLUS
JDataExplorer
SQL Programmer

And they all give me the same error msg. The second i back up and put the line in the 295 char range, it works...

Thx for all your replies.
