SQL Script's output to a CSV file
I need to call and execute an SQL script within a KSH script and get the output/extracted data into a CSV file. Is there any way to get the out put in a CSV file other than spooling ?

I tried spooling. Problem is if there is any wrning/comment/Error they all will be spooled into the csv file. I just need pure data from DB.
