It's been my experience that some SQL can be submitted multi-line and 
some cannot. Typically a set of stored procedures will not execute in 
multi-line fashion. That said, the SQL you have posted looks to me 
like it should go multi-line with no problems. I do that kind of 
multi-line execute all the time.

The SQL I submit on Sybase does not end with ";" so I'm not familiar 
with that as an ending. Maybe the rev database commands don't want to 
see ";" at the end of each line?

For the SQL I submit on Sybase, within my interface, each line is 
terminated with an ascii(13). Don't know if that would make a 
difference for you, probably not.

I'm not sure what kind of magic rev does to the lines before it 
submits them to the database. Maybe there is some kind of binary mode 
or something weird like that to tell rev to do exactly what you have 
written without modification. Again, I don't know if you text is 
getting modified by rev.

Perhaps wrap them in a begin tran and commit (or whatever your SQL 
database uses to wrap multi-line commands).

Good luck.
