column formatting

[Natik]

Is there a way to have the complete column name returned without specifically specifying "col colum_name format .." by a select statement.

sounds vague can u give example dear

The select statement is not what returns the column names -- that is done by the application, and in this case I'm guessing that you mean SQL*Plus.

What you might consider is loading up your glogin file with the required column format settings.
