URGENT:SQLLDR, concatenating 2 columns

Hi....Oracle Gurus,

   I am having a problem while loading records into oracle. One of the column is a text field in sybase. when i  downloaded the data it puts "\n" or newline between the 2 rows i.e the row looks like this

 dskfjdskf|3242432|ksdjfksdfj|Hi Please help  me|324324234234

 Now, my problem is that the stmt "Hi Please help me" is one line with delimiter "|". All the rows doesn't have  this problem. The data is variable length. How do i tell the SQLLDR to scan the current column till it reaches "|"  in case it doesn't get the data for all fields.

 TIA,  Praveen
