SQLPLUS prompt

I got my PC refreshed the other day. Lost most of my settings and didn't have a good backup though have been backup up files here and there, throwing here..form disk A to disk B...at the end when disaster strike...can't really manage to handle.

Anyway, visit http://www.dbazine.com/blogs/blog-cf/chrisfoot/blogentry.2006-06-22.9332221251

It has a good write up on SQLPLus prompt customization.

My sample and favorite as below

COLUMN file_name FORMAT a44
COLUMN tablespace_name FORMAT a20
COLUMN owner FORMAT a15
COLUMN segment_name FORMAT a20
set lines 132
set pages 100
set termout off
col dbname new_value prompt_dbname
col uname new_value prompt_username

select instance_name dbname from v$instance;
select user uname from dual;
set sqlprompt "&&prompt_username'@'&&prompt_dbname> "
set termout on
set time off

Error 5004 to use alter database, the database must be in a writable state in which a checkpoint can be executed in sql server 2000

Try detach/attach the database mentioned

Tiger Airways Service

Some delayed incidents on tiger airways.

Wish there is a centralized place to keep track of budget airline service.

Or do budget airlines really care for their service?

OTHER DELAYED FLIGHTS

- TIGER Airways flight from Bangkok to Singapore was delayed on 15 Jun, for more than 30 hours.

Stranded passengers were told that the aircraft had a 'landing gear' fault, one of them said.

- SOME 150 passengers had to sleep in the departure lounge in Bali after their 2 1/2-hour Valuair flight to Singapore on 22 Jun was delayed for 15 hours.

The delay was caused by two mechanical problems, the airline said.

- WHAT was supposed to be a two-hour flight to Phuket ended up as a seven-hour flight.

Tiger Airways flight TR152 was delayed for five hours at Changi Airport's Budget Terminal on 23 Feb because one of the six exit signs in the plane's cabin was not working.
