Making multiple lines as single line
Hi All,

I have a spool file which as shown below. I want to make it as single line after every semicolon. In this case there should be 2 lines in vi editor.

I am not used to use sed so could you guys please help me out ?
Code:
exec spk_dba.sp_runsql('ALP','CREATE DATABASE LINK "TEST" CONNECT TO "XXXXX" IDENTIFIED BY VALUES
''062F096622A83BB1E27623421592E22372352276DBD59F20B7BB3671ADFF0B92D43C5104203DC3AD46C5F6AD500EBA34AFC198EB2A2C06F97E1C37EAEF89
