Passing a space as an argument to SQL*Plus

GP
Consider the following: (extracted from a .bat)

sqlplus toto/titi ^
@%pdl%\islqz033 ^
'1 ' ^
'aaa' ^
' ' ^
'zzz' ^
....
At execution, SQL*Plus stops and ask for the parameter corresponding
to the blank spaces(' ') parameter.

In 8.0 it was working fine, but in 9.2 SQL*Plus does not like it.

I have multiple .bat that use that approach, so a solution with
minimal impact would be appreciated.

Thanks !

NOTE: I've tried both 'set COMPATIBILITY V8' and 'SET
SQLPLUSCOMPATIB ILITY 8.0.0' with no luck...

Hi, I have an SQL assignment to do and at my school we use SQL *Plus there however I don't have Oracle at home, where I would like to do the work ,so I was wondering whats the easiest way to get an SQL environment up so I can code in that then just paste it into SQL *Plus later. I don't really want to install Oracle on my home pc and I was wondering if there are other IDE's for SQl that would fit my need for this.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
