Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: Insert from text file
You couldn't use UTL_FILE, unless there is a mechanism for the Unix machine to see the filesystem of the NT machine - and if there was, it would be easier to run SQL*Loader on Unix.
What do you have on your client machine? I assume that the Oracle client is installed. Therefore, you can write a simple program to format your text file into DML statements, then just run these in SQL*Plus. Alternatively, it would be simple in Perl or Java to write a program that parsed the text file and fired off INSERT statements to Oracle in one go, this would be easier if you need to do this a lot. Or use Samba on Unix, to copy the text file across from NT to Unix, then you can use UTL_FILE or SQL*Loader or whatever tool you want to load the data.

Hi listers,
I want to insert a text file in my client machine (Win NT) into emp
(empno,ename, salary) table in unix machine from my client. I don't have
sqlloader in my machine (client). How to do that ? Can we used utl_file
package ?
If yes , please give an example because I'm new for utl_file package.
The columns in text file are (empno, ename, salary) :
1111 Aaaaaaaaa 3000
2222 Bbbbbbbbb 5000
3333 Ccccccccc 4000
Thanks for any clue.
