Urgent: SQL*Loader Question

Hi! Folks:

How do I get SQL*Loader to preserve my trailing and beginning whitepace for CHAR fields. I read the documentation and they mentioned using the PRESERVE BLANKS keyword in the control file when I am specifiying the FIELDS TERMINATED BY... line.

I tried that and SQL*Loader is giving me a syntax error.

Can you please give me a small example of a control file with this keyword? I saw the examples in the documentation and could not find anything.

We are running Oracle 8.0.5.1 on Solaris 2.6.

Thanks a lot for your time and help.

regards,
premal
