Oracle Database 11g Express Edition - Problem with SQL script

de8d9125-8c72-4db5-8aa4-4f77d110e857May 2 2017 — edited May 3 2017

I'm trying to use this program and a SQL file supplied by my professor for class, and it's not functioning correctly.

I'm using the Oracle Database 11g Express Edition, on Windows 10 Professional.

The directions are to launch the Run SQL Command Line and then call the SQL file.  When I do that, it runs and then closes out immediately.

I thought it was the EXIT at the end of the script, but removing it leaves the window and no tables created.

Any help would be MUCH APPRECIATED!!!

The SQL code:

-- DESCRIPTION

--   This script creates the SQL*Plus demonstration tables in the

--   current schema.  It should be STARTed by each user wishing to

--   access the tables. 

SET TERMOUT ON

PROMPT Building demonstration tables.  Please wait.
