Setting and Showing the SQL Terminator

The SQL terminator symbolizes the end of an SQL statement. By default, the SQL terminator is a semicolon (;).

To change the SQL terminator, enter the SET SQLTERMINATOR command. For example, this SET TERMINATOR command sets the SQL terminator to a period (.):

SQL>set sqlterminator .

SQL>insert into sales.custlist +>(select * from invent.supplier +>where suppnum=8).

--- 1 row(s) inserted.

SQL>

To show the SQL terminator that is in effect for the session, enter the SHOW SQLTERMINATOR command. For example, this SHOW TERMINATOR command displays SQLTERMINATOR ., where the period (.) is the SQL terminator for the session:

SQL>show sqlterminator

SQLTERMINATOR .

SQL>

For more information, see the “SET SQLTERMINATOR Command” (page 112) and the “SHOW SQLTERMINATOR Command” (page 124).

Displaying the Elapsed Time

By default, Neoview Script does not display the elapsed time of an SQL statement after the statement executes. To display the elapsed time after each SQL statement executes, enter the SET TIMING ON command:

SQL>set timing on

SQL>select suppname, street, city, state, postcode +>from invent.supplier

+>where suppnum=3;
