dbms_output.enable(100000);

The buffer limit default is 2000. It can be as
large as 1,000,000.

Thanks for the help. I know I wouldnt exceed that limit. I was wondering is there any way you could flush the buffer from within the procedure that is pumping the output?

not sure what you mean. Just put the command
DBMS_OUTPUT.ENABLE(100000);
at the top of your procedure before you try to write anything with DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_LINE.
That should be all you need to do.

I understood the way to bounce the limit. What I am asking now is can I flush and clear the buffer from within the procedure. I mean if I have my DBMS_OUTPUT stmt in a loop, can I reset the buffer every 1000 records? That way I will never run into the buffer problem right?
