Hi,

I am desperatly trying to load a simple csv file into an empty table (may be not that simple after all!).
It keeps on telling the numbers are invalid for the colun value. When I get rid of the digits after the comma it works fine. Would there be a way to load big numbers with sqlldr?
(It also does not work with the datatype NUMBER, same message).
Thanks for helping.

here is my ctl file

LOAD DATA
INFILE 'C:\loadCSV\testrun.csv'
INTO TABLE STOCK_DATA
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(CODE, NBTYPE, YEAR, PERIOD, IS_ESTIMATE, VALUE )
The structure of my table:

CREATE TABLE OWNER.STOCK_DATA
(

    CODE        VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL,
    NBTYPE      VARCHAR2(10) NOT NULL,
    YEAR        NUMBER(10)   NOT NULL,
    PERIOD      VARCHAR2(2)  NOT NULL,
    IS_ESTIMATE VARCHAR2(2)  NOT NULL,
    VALUE       FLOAT(126)   NOT NULL

)

Here is what looks like my csv file:

SIEGn.DE,DBFI058,1989,A,N,10684.102654
SIEGn.DE,DBGE001,1989,A,N,370000.000000
