8.1.7

I am loading an input file to a single DB table. The input file is different than the table I'm loading and contains fields I don't need to load. I do not want to load some of the input fields. The input file has 11 cols. and I need to ignore 5 of them. The DB table has 15 cols and I know how to ignore them with the filler clause. The input file is a delimited flat file. How do I tell SQL*Loader not to load various input fields?

Thanks,
