Hi people,
I somehow managed to create the excel file from sql script using spool command. But the column names displayed in the excel file are not displayed fully.

Eg. If i have a column 'Business_segment' and the size of the column is say varchar2(5), then the column name is getting displayed as 'Busin'. What should be done to get the full column name in excel? What script must be added to the sql script file?
