Need some Pro*C advice (want to ditch SQL Loader)

Hello,

[Quoted] [Quoted] I posted an article about importing graphics files using SQL Loader last week, [Quoted] but I did not get much response. Because of this, I have concluded not many [Quoted] individuals are using SQL Loader for much beyond text uploads. I am already [Quoted] writing utilities (in C) to process multiple text files and generate compact [Quoted] text files for SQL Loader, so now I am asking myself why I am even using SQL [Quoted] Loader if I could be using pro*c. This seems to be even more effective when it [Quoted] comes to loading my tiff image files (since SQL loader is just giving me headaches). I am an intermediate C programmer (with no C++) so will I be able [Quoted] [Quoted] to use pro*c, also what is pro*c? Is this a library that I can add on to gcc or [Quoted] is it a completly seperate compiler ( I am running HP-UX).

Thanks,

-Bob
