[Quoted] Is there any existing Oracle tool that can be used to dump the columns returned from a select statement into an file formatted as unpadded lines of variable length fields separated by a distinguished character like '|'?

SQL Plus comes close with the options indicated in the manual for making a flat file dump, but I can't find anything to stop padding of either the columns or the line to fixed widths. Received on Mon Oct 25 1999 - 05:29:04 CEST
