Simple SQLPlus question - has me stumped (repost - other post was dated 2000).

Hi all,

Am trying to learn Oracle at home (between jobs!).

Log on as scott/tiger.

set linesize 10000
set pause on
set serveroutput on

select * from dictionary

> TABLE_NAME COMMENTS
> ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
> ALL_ALL_TABLES Description of all object and relational tables accessible to the use

But I can't scroll over to the right any further than this, despite having a linesize of 10000. Can anybody tell me what I'm missing, thanks?

Paul...
