Documentation Accessibility
Our goal is to make Oracle products, services, and supporting documentation accessible to all users, including users that are disabled. To that end, our documentation includes features that make information available to users of assistive technology. This documentation is available in HTML format, and contains markup to facilitate access by the disabled community. Accessibility standards will continue to evolve over time, and Oracle is actively engaged with other market-leading technology vendors to address technical obstacles so that our documentation can be accessible to all of our customers. For more information, visit the Oracle Accessibility Program Web site at http://www.oracle.com/accessibility/.
Accessibility of Code Examples in Documentation
Screen readers may not always correctly read the code examples in this document. The conventions for writing code require that closing braces should appear on an otherwise empty line; however, some screen readers may not always read a line of text that consists solely of a bracket or brace.
Accessibility of Links to External Web Sites in Documentation
This documentation may contain links to Web sites of other companies or organizations that Oracle does not own or control. Oracle neither evaluates nor makes any representations regarding the accessibility of these Web sites.
Deaf/Hard of Hearing Access to Oracle Support Services
To reach Oracle Support Services, use a telecommunications relay service (TRS) to call Oracle Support at 1.800.223.1711. An Oracle Support Services engineer will handle technical issues and provide customer support according to the Oracle service request process. Information about TRS is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/consumerfacts/trs.html, and a list of phone numbers is available at http://www.fcc.gov/cgb/dro/trsphonebk.html.

Entering and Executing Commands
Use the following commands to execute and collect timing statistics on SQL commands and PL/SQL blocks.
/ (slash)
Executes the most recently executed SQL command or PL/SQL block which is stored in the SQL buffer. Does not list the command. Use slash (/) at the command prompt or line number prompt in SQL*Plus command line. The buffer has no command history and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
EXEC[UTE] statement
Executes a single PL/SQL statement or runs a stored procedure.
R[UN]
Lists and executes the most recently executed SQL command or PL/SQL block which is stored in the SQL buffer. The buffer has no command history and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
TIMI[NG] [START text | SHOW | STOP]
Records timing data for an elapsed period of time, lists the current timer's name and timing data, or lists the number of active timers.
Use the following command to access the help system.
HELP | ? [topic]
Accesses the command-line help system. Enter HELP INDEX or ? INDEX for a list of topics. You can view SQL*Plus resources at http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/sql_plus/ and the Oracle Database Library at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation.
Use the following command to execute operating system commands.
HO[ST] [command]
Executes an operating system command without leaving SQL*Plus. Enter HOST without command to display an operating system prompt. You can then enter multiple operating system commands.
With some operating systems, you can use another character instead of HOST such as "!" (UNIX) and "$" (Windows). See the Oracle installation and user's manuals provided for your operating system for details.
Manipulating SQL, SQL*Plus and PL/SQL Commands
Use the following commands to edit SQL commands and PL/SQL blocks.
A[PPEND] text
Adds specified text to the end of the current line in the SQL buffer. To separate text from the preceding characters with a space, enter two spaces. To append text that ends with a semicolon, end the command with two semicolons (a single semicolon is interpreted as a command terminator).
C[HANGE] sepchar old [sepchar [new [sepchar]]]
Changes first occurrence of old on the current line of the SQL buffer. You can use any non-alphanumeric character such as "/" or "!" as a sepchar. You can omit the space between CHANGE and the first sepchar. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
DEL [n | n m | n * | n LAST | * | * n | * LAST | LAST]
Deletes one or more lines of the SQL buffer ("*" indicates the current line). You can omit the space between DEL and n or *, but not between DEL and LAST. Enter DEL with no clauses to delete the current line of the buffer. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
I[NPUT] [text]
Adds one or more new lines of text after the current line in the SQL buffer. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
L[IST] [n | n m | n * | n LAST | * | * n | * LAST | LAST]
Lists one or more lines of the most recently executed SQL command or PL/SQL block which is stored in the SQL buffer. Asterisk (*) indicates the current line. You can omit the space between LIST and n or *, but not between LIST and LAST. Enter LIST with no clauses to list all lines. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
Use the following commands to run scripts.
@ { url | file_name[.ext] } [arg ...]
Runs the SQL*Plus statements in the specified script. The script can be called from the local file system or a web server. You can pass values to script variables in the usual way.
@@ { url | file_name[.ext] } [arg ...]
Runs the SQL*Plus statements in the specified script. This command is almost identical to the @ command. It is useful for running nested scripts because it has the additional functionality of looking for the specified script in the same path or url as the calling script.
STA[RT] { url | file_name[.ext] } [arg ...]
Runs the SQL*Plus statements in the specified script. The script can be called from the local file system or a web server. You can pass values to script variables in the usual way.
Use the following commands to create and modify scripts.
ED[IT] [file_name[.ext]]
Invokes an operating system text editor on the contents of the specified file or on the contents of the SQL buffer. To edit the buffer contents, omit the file name. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
GET file_name[.ext] [LIST | NOLIST]
Loads a SQL statement or PL/SQL block from a file into the SQL buffer. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
REM[ARK]
Begins a comment in a script. The REMARK command must appear at the beginning of a line, and the comment ends at the end of the line (a line cannot contain both a comment and a command). SQL*Plus does not interpret the comment as a command.
SAV[E] file_name[.ext] [CRE[ATE] | REP[LACE] | APP[END]]
Saves the contents of the SQL buffer in a file. The buffer has no command history list and does not record SQL*Plus commands.
STORE {SET} file_name[.ext] [CRE[ATE] | REP[LACE] | APP[END]]
Saves attributes of the current SQL*Plus environment in a file.
WHENEVER OSERROR {EXIT [SUCCESS | FAILURE | n | variable | :BindVariable] [COMMIT | ROLLBACK] | CONTINUE [COMMIT | ROLLBACK | NONE]}
Performs the specified action (exits SQL*Plus by default) if an operating system error occurs (such as a file writing error).
WHENEVER SQLERROR {EXIT [SUCCESS | FAILURE | WARNING | n | variable | :BindVariable] [COMMIT | ROLLBACK] | CONTINUE [COMMIT | ROLLBACK | NONE]}
Performs the specified action (exits SQL*Plus by default) if a SQL command or PL/SQL block generates an error.
Use the following commands to write interactive commands.
ACC[EPT] variable [NUM[BER] | CHAR | DATE | BINARY_FLOAT | BINARY_DOUBLE] [FOR[MAT] format] [DEF[AULT] default] [PROMPT text | NOPR[OMPT]] [HIDE]
Reads a line of input and stores it in a given substitution variable.
DEF[INE] [variable] | [variable = text]

&user_variable, &&user_variable
Indicates a substitution variable in a SQL or SQL*Plus command. SQL*Plus substitutes the value of the specified substitution variable for each substitution variable it encounters. If the substitution variable is undefined, SQL*Plus prompts you for a value each time an "&" variable is found, and the first time an "&&" variable is found.
. (period)
Terminates a substitution variable followed by a character that would otherwise be part of the variable name.
Formatting Query Results
Use the following commands to format, store and print your query results.
ATTRIBUTE [type_name.attribute_name [option...]]

Accessing Databases
Use the following commands to access and copy data between tables on different databases.
CONN[ECT] [{logon | / | proxy} [AS {SYSOPER | SYSDBA | SYSASM}]]
where logon requires the following syntax:
username[/password] [@connect_identifier]
where proxy requires the following syntax:
proxyuser[username] [/password] [@connect_identifier]
|
Note:
The brackets around username in proxy are required syntax. |
Connects a given username to the Oracle Database. If you omit connect_identifier, SQL*Plus connects you to the default database. If you omit username and/or password, SQL*Plus prompts you for them. CONNECT followed by a slash (/) connects you using a default (OPS$) logon.
When you run a CONNECT command, the site profile, glogin.sql, and the user profile, login.sql, are processed in that order. CONNECT does not reprompt for username or password if the initial connection does not succeed.
DISC[ONNECT]
Commits pending changes to the database and logs the current user out of Oracle, but does not exit SQL*Plus. In SQL*Plus command line, use EXIT or QUIT to log out of Oracle and return control to your computer's operating system.
COPY {FROM database | TO database | FROM database TO database} {APPEND | CREATE | INSERT | REPLACE} destination_table[(column, column, column, ...)] USING query
where database has the following syntax:
username[/password]@connect_identifier
Copies data from a query to a table in the same or another database. APPEND, CREATE, INSERT or REPLACE specifies how COPY treats the existing copy of the destination table (if it exists). USING query identifies the source table and determines which rows and columns COPY copies from it. COPY supports CHAR, DATE, LONG, NUMBER and VARCHAR2 datatypes.
PASSW[ORD] [username]
Allows you to change a password without displaying it on an input device.
XQUERY xquery_statement
Allows you to run an XQuery from SQL*Plus.
Miscellaneous
ARCHIVE LOG LIST
Displays information about redo log files.
DESC[RIBE] {[schema.]object[@connect_identifier]}
Lists the column definitions for a table, view or synonym, or the specifications for a function or procedure.
RECOVER {general | managed | BEGIN BACKUP | END BACKUP}
where the general clause has the following syntax:

where the full_database_recovery clause has the following syntax:
[STANDBY] DATABASE [ {UNTIL {CANCEL | TIME date | CHANGE integer} | USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE} [UNTIL {CANCEL | TIME date | CHANGE integer} | USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE]...]
where the partial_database_recovery clause has the following syntax:
{TABLESPACE tablespace [, tablespace]... | DATAFILE {filename | filenumber} [, filename | filenumber]... | STANDBY {TABLESPACE tablespace [, tablespace]... | DATAFILE {filename | filenumber} [, filename | filenumber]...} UNTIL [CONSISTENT WITH] CONTROLFILE }
where the parallel clause has the following syntax:
{ NOPARALLEL | PARALLEL [ integer ] }
where the managed clause has the following syntax:
MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE recover_clause | cancel_clause | finish_clause
