Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> UTL_FILE -- creating a carriage return line feed running in UNIX
Hi, all -- I have a UTL_FILE script that creates a csv from an Oracle
table. So far, so good -- until we get to the end of the record.
Because the script is running in UNIX, the NEWLINE (linefeed) that is
included with the PUT_LINE function is not coming out in the csv, so
when the vendor (who's running on a SQL Server 2000 platform) looks at
it, it's just one long run-on record. Is there any way to fix this?
I've looked at the UTL_FILE documentation in the PL/SQL Programming
book, but no joy. And I am definitely no expert in UTL_FILE anyway.
Gurus?
Thank you --
