How to acheive ALT+Enter of xls in Unix ksh/sqlplus
Hi,
I am using sqlplus (called inside my ksh) to create a file which is mailed to the users as an xls.
There is one DESCRIPTION column which is currently coming as wrapped, but, the users want a new line for each of the fields present in the desricription column.
Below is an example -
DESCRIPTION
-------------
Name:aaaaaa Base:123mn Loc:000454
Sequence:00000987 Shadow:Y
This is wrapped.
How the User wants this column is as follows -
DESCRIPTION
-------------
Name:aaaaaa
Base:123mn
Loc:000454
Sequence:00000987
Shadow:Y
This should be wrapped too but each field with its value should appear in a new line (like we give ALT+Enter in a xls to have a new line inside a cell).
Is this possible to do this in sqlplus?
I had tried giving the following Column command, but it is not working -
COLUMN DESCRIPTION FORMAT WORD_WRAP
Thanks,
Sree
