Grace,

    This is not a legal/good/viable ctl file for SQL*Loader. Basically you've got two ctl files concatenated together. Since this references two separate tables with two separate data files you need to do it as two separate runs. If you can eliminate the second table, since they appear to have the same format then the following would work:

LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\sqlldr\a.ORA'
INFILE 'C:\sqlldr\b.ORA'
APPEND
INTO TABLE a_WORK
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '~'
(promo_code)

GURUS, CAN one CTL CONTAIN SEVERAL INFILES?
IS THE CTL FILE I MADE CORRECT? IF NOT , what's the correct way of doing it? i' m getting this error when the sql loader: Expecting keyword INTO or end of file, found keyword load. LOAD DATA here's thectl file i made . all of these codes are in 1 ctr file named test.ctl
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\sqlldr\a.ORA' REPLACE
INTO TABLE a_WORK
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '~'
(promo_code)

INFILE 'C:\sqlldr\b.ORA' replace
INTO TABLE b_WORK
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '~'
(promo_code)
