Answer 1

In Oracle, to run a script (.sql) you use SQLPLUS command line utility.

c:\> sqlplus user_name/user_password@connect_string @path\your_sql.sql

Answer 2

Try to use sqlplus:

  sqlplus user/password@connect @/Nisarg/NEult/softpoint.sql

More information.

Answer 3

It's worth knowing you can have a space between @ and the input file, which enables the use of the tab key auto completion.

Answer 4

You can also export the SQLPATH environment variable (colon separated list of directories) for common scripts you don't want to bang out/tab complete the full path every time.
