How is this a "Networking and Gateways" question?
Isn't it a "SQL Client Tools" one? -> moved

A. semi-colons
But this will not be a single sql statement. It will be 5 sql statements separated by semi-colons(Wink

What do you want to update ? Different fields in the same table Or different tables ?

If Different fields in the same table you could do in same query almost . Other wise need to executes as 5 statments. In that case seperator will be ';' as suggested by 'Pablolee'

Thanks Kiran. By pressing F5, i also come to know the line numbers on which my statements are wrong or if any syntax problems.

As i am very new to sql as well as oracle, i don't know such little things.

See, this nothing to do with SQL. It is toad feature. Thats all. You can read Toad Help manual for this by pressing F1. You can also know more short cuts there.

Cheers,
Kiran.

If you are so new to Oracle, maybe you should focus on more important stuff than how to execute multiple statements with a single keystroke.
For starters, try to work with sqlplus instead of TOAD. GUI-tools are great and can improve productivity a great deal, but they hide so much from you that it takes away a big part of the things you need to really get an understanding of how (developing in) Oracle works.
