Re: FW: how to Loading data file (SQL LOADER)

>i forgot to mention that i did look in to manual
This soon will be the right style write it :-))))))))

I really not expert in sqlloader but I can say what I would do in such a situation

I would create a temporary table and load all data (of course remebering the order) there without any modifications at all or maybe only simple ones.
Then create a PL/SQL procedure/package to insert data from temporary table into destination table that handles all these complicated things.

This is just because I'm feeling much bettter in PL/SQL than loader scripts, and in the same time I'm sure one can do much more with PL/SQL than loader control files.
