Daniel,

There at least three methods to do that, depending on your senarios. I'm giving you examples of using %username% in SELECT clause. Same principle applies to INSERT. I hope these help.

Method 1
--------
In nttoora.cmd file:
echo select '%username%' "USER" from dual; > nttoora.sql
echo exit >> nttoora.sql
plus80 scott/tiger @nttoora.sql
del nttoora.sql

NT command:
C:\nttoora.cmd

Method 2
--------
In nttoora.cmd file:
echo select '%1' "USER" from dual; > nttoora.sql
echo exit >> nttoora.sql
plus80 scott/tiger @nttoora.sql
del nttoora.sql

NT command:
C:\nttoora.cmd %username%

Method 3
--------
In nttoora.sql file:
set ver off
select '&1' "USER" from dual;
exit

NT command:
C:\plus80 scott/tiger @nttoora.sql %username%
