SQLCMD springs to mind; it always emits all its data on a single line (unless the data is a character string containing newlines). It also has a fixed-width output mode (though, IIRC, it still puts out delimiters between the fields). It also has something resembling a CSV (comma-separated values) output format. -- Jonathan Leffler (jleffler@informix.com, jleffler@earthlink.net) Guardian of DBD::Informix v0.60 -- see http://www.perl.com/CPAN #include <disclaimer.h>
