Hi, If you are using Oracle on Linux, then you cannot use ed or edit command to edit statemets. -Aruna

Can't use ed or edit to edit commands if you use Oracle on Linux?!?That's bull. All you have to do is define _editor; I use SQL*Plus on Linux all the time and edit works fine.

   If you are using Oracle in Unix or Linux ,make an entry in the

glogin.sql file for your default editor.

define_editor=vi

You will find glogin.sql in OracleHome/sqlplus/admin directory.

there are two way u can give:

1) sql> define_Editor = 'Notepad';

2) go to menu editor editor-> define editor-> give the name that u want to appear i.e notepad or wordpad in the text box.

You just copy the SQLPlusw file and copy in another location and access from that copied file.
I think you will not get the ed or edit problem.
