Here's how I do it in Oracle. I don't know if it will work for you or not, but you can test it.

Code:
sqlplus -s /NOLOG <<EOF
   connect username/password
   select 'blah' from dual;
   exit
EOF

If you need to store the returned value:
Code:
MYVAL=$(sqlplus -s /NOLOG <<EOF
   connect username/password
   select 'blah' from dual;
   exit
EOF)
