    creating spool file

    i want to create a spool file everytime i login to my SQL
    but it should not overwrite the previous file whenever i re-login to
    SQL session.

    is there any way to keep the previous spool file.

    Three ideas spring to mind:

    1) Use SPOOL filename APPEND to append to existing file
    2) use HOST command to move the file to a backup location
    3) Dynamically generate q unique filename via a SELECT statement and NEW_VALUE (maybe using a sequence?)

    you can append sysdate to spool file and keep it better organised.

    check the link for many ways to do:
