use following syntax in Host command

VOL >result.txt

The output of this command witll be saved in a text file named result. Now there will be a method to read and display any text file.
I dont know that method. ANy expert can comment on it.

Use 'text_io' or 'utl_file' depending on the version of Forms and Database.

Search this forum for 'host'. Read, at least, five of them and THEN come back to us with code that ISN'T working and we will help you to get it working.
