Write REF CURSOR to file

November 21, 2011

http://img.ehowcdn.com/article-page-main/ds-photo/getty/article/129/2/78468231_xs.jpgThis is just a very simple procedure that makes writing a lot of files using UTL_FILE much simpler. It can be used to easily create simple CSVs or fixed-length files.

I’ve shown it here in a package body; it’s up to you to create a package spec.

To use it, all you need to do is create a query that concatenates all the data into a single string up to 4000 characters long. If you’re writing a CSV you need to concatenate commas and quotes as appropriate.
