Re: SQL*Loader

There's several examples in Chapter 11 of my SQL*Loader book<g>. Here's a slightly simplified version of one of those:

LOAD DATA
   INFILE 'waterfalls_photos.dat'
   REPLACE INTO TABLE WATERFALLS
   (
   falls_photo_file FILLER CHAR TERMINATED BY ','

      ENCLOSED BY '"',
   falls_photo LOBFILE(falls_photo_file) RAW

      TERMINATED BY EOF
   falls_name CHAR TERMINATED BY ','

      ENCLOSED BY '"'
   )

Your input file should look something like:

"chapel_falls.jpg","Chapel Falls"
"scott_falls.jpg","Scott Falls"

...

All the JPG files should, of course, exist also.

Best regards,

Jonathan Gennick
