You can use pl/sql for this. It is not the most productive method but if you have to do some testing and data manipulation prior to outputing the data to a file it would probably be ok. Here's how:



CREATE OR REPLACE PROCEDURE test1 AS

tmp_col number;

BEGIN

          select  test_column
          into     tmp_col
          from    test_table;

          tmp_col := (tmp_col - 9987)/35;         
          DBMS_OUTPUT.PUTLINE('This is the value of test amount is
$'||tmp_col);
END;
/

set serveroutput on size 100000

spool flat.file

EXECUTE test1;

spool off
