Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> external tables and DB3 files
I tried to read the documentation about External Tables (a new Oracle9i
feature). There is a note about "third party access drivers" but it
seems that the only existing access driver is ORACLE_LOADER, a sort of
in-place SQL*Loader.
This is useful for text files, but I have to attach DB3 files instead.
Does someone knows if there are other drivers available?
If not, is there a way to load DB3 files as they were text files?
(without transforming them before, of course) A lot of time ago there
was an utility called DB3PREP. Does someone recall how it worked?
TIA, Cris
