You're welcome.

A good place to get sample data to work with is described in Jonathan Gennick's SQL*Loader text.
A sample chapter is available at
http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/orsqlloader/chapter/ch01.html

For Oracle on Linux:
There is an Oracle-linux-L at fatcity.com. SUB ORACLE-LINUX-L There is also a SuSE-Oracle list - e-mail: suse-oracle-help_at_suse.com SuSE has a large amount of materials available for Oracle on Linux. http://www.suse.com/en/support/oracle/

have fun.
