Hi,
I don't want to hard code the things.

I am able to generate a csv file where the data is coming in all the columns properly from the procedure.I am running the procedure in the shell script. But the header is not able to come in its respective columns. What i see that there is no comma in between the headers in the csv file.

I tried to do it with hard coding it- As i had did shown in the above post.

But i need more generic one because if somebody changes the stored procedure and the number of columns or the name of the columns then the script will fail...

Is that an Oracle stored procedure? Any way you can return a comma-delimited header from the stored procedure itself?

@Franklin52 - Thanks for the clarification.

It is a sybase stored procedure...

Some lines of the stored procedure are:-

select
"Counter Number" ,",",
"Counterparty1" ,",",
.........
........
from table

This gives the data perfectly in columns. But the header is not able to come out in a perfect way.

When I open the csv file, I can see that commas are present in each and every line but the first line i.e the header doesnot contain any commas..

I don't know much about Sybase, but assuming it implements ANSI SQL, you might be able to use something like this -

Code:
select "Counter Number,Counterparty1,Counterparty2"
union all
select column1 || "," || column2 ||","|| column3
from table;
