If it's a SQL script that is just to create, for example, demo tables (much along the lines of the SCOTT/TIGER EMP/DEPT deal), then you just do 'start d:\scripts\createit.sql'.

Without knowing more about what these 'tables' are etc...

Or SQL*Load perhaps if it's just data? Or perhaps you can *generate* SQL from the data file to row-by-row insert it using Perl for example.
