Hi,

I have Oracle, and I want to execute simple queries in it. Is it possible to do this using a UNIX shell scripts. Are there any commands in Shell scripting where in I can communicate to ORACLE!?

Thanks,

For other answers search for the username google and oracle on this forum.

I like to control the session automatically so I use:
Code:
UID=$1
PSWD=$2
exsql ()  {
     awk '{ if(NR == 1) {
        STR=sprintf("%s/%s",UI,PW)
        print STR
        print "set pagesize 80;"
        print "set linesize 240;"
        }
        print $0}' UI=$UID PW=$PSWD | sqlplus -s 
    }
    
echo " select * from mytable;" >exsql

This also prevents the username password from showing up in the ps -ef display.
