a little Q&D:
call !sqlldr from sqlplus, see e.g. http://www.orafaq.com/faqloadr.htm#LOBS
for a sample. I would not recommend this for production code that is
exposed to end-users.
A proper way would perhaps be through a browser app using a http
upload to the appserver (APEX?), but have never built such a thing.
Another option could be to put the file on the server using a shared
disk (windows share or mapped drive or samba share in case of a unix
server). Then the client calls a stored procedure that accesses the
file through a directory.
Also not too elegant in my opinion.
Perhaps Oracle Forms has some options for client side file operations.
Not sure.
Good luck, regards, Erik Ykema
