The best way I can think of is to write a program that does 2 things: - It reads the header of the .dbf file and generates a SQL*Loader control file
- It reads the rest of the .dbf file and generates a matching SQL*Loader data file.
Then run SQL*Loader to load the data into the database.

The fileformat for a .dbf file is well-known.
