does anyone know how to keep QA from adding the lines setting these
two options on and off along with blank lines at the beginning and end
of every object you edit? i have searched quite a bit on this but
haven't been able to come up with anything.

question:

There does not seem to be an option for this.

The reason they are there, is that these to set options are saved with
the procedure. I can understand that it is a bit of a nuisance. But since
Enterprise Manager incorrectly has these two off by default, it's
probably a good thing that QA includes them with the right setting. (But
it's not good that there is a SET OFF for one of them at the end.)

Personally, I don't find this a hassle, since I keep my code under source
control, and rarely have reason to script it from the database.
