Greetings,

We have one column in a table and this column need to store data with Line Feed, denoted by \x0d\x0a in the following row. This data comes from Sybase database. If \x0d\x0a cannot be loaded as Line Feed through the SQL*Loader then how can we do it?

Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Ashoke

Data file contains the following one record :
