What about using the copy command?

You can set up an SQL*Plus connection, remember to issue the set copycommit value for large tables to save the rollbacks, then
copy from <username/password_at_connect> -
to <username/password_at_connect> -
[append|create|insert|replace] -
<table name> using -
<query statement>

within the query statment you can use the string functions if necessary to alter the string sizes, or decodes to change the values, etc.
