Every column on different line with one record SQL reports - sql

Question

I am trying to make a report for a particular table emp something like this.
************************************************************
EMPLOYEE NUMBER : 1010
EMPLOYEE NAME : SARAH
JOB : DESIGNER
SALARY : 10000$
*************************************************************
EMPLOYEE NUMBER : 1011
EMPLOYEE NAME : HANNAH
JOB : DECORATOR
SALARY : 20000$
*************************************************************
But I don't know how to get every column name on different line.
sql > break column on empname skip page
The above code does something like this.
EMPNO ENAME JOB SAL
---------- ---------- --------- ----------
7839 KING PRESIDENT 5000
EMPNO ENAME JOB SAL
---------- ---------- --------- ----------
7840 QUEEN PRESIDENT 4000
Please suggest what would be the code for it ? TIA.

If you just want the data in this format in some presentation layer (e.g. a text editor), you can simply select the columns concatenated together, separated by a newline:
DECLARE
CURSOR cur IS
SELECT empno, ename, job, sal FROM yourTable;
v_empno yourTable.empno%INT;
v_ename yourTable.ename%VARCHAR2(100);
v_job yourTable.job%VARCHAR2(100);
v_sal yourTable.sal%NUMBER(10,4);
BEGIN
OPEN cur;
LOOP
FETCH cur INTO v_empno, v_ename, v_job, v_sal
EXIT WHEN cur%NOTFOUND;
dbms_output.put_line('EMPLOYEE NUMBER : ' || v_empno || CHR(13) || 'EMPLOYEE NAME : '
|| v_ename || CHR(13) || 'JOB : ' || v_job || CHR(13) || 'SALARY : ' ||
v_sal || '$' || CHR(13));
END LOOP;
CLOSE cur;
END;
