Is it possible to load a filename with it's associated data using SQL Loader?

I am using Perl to scan a directory and create many "INFILE filename BADFILE filename DISCARDFILE filename" statements which are inserted at the top of the control file.

I guess if the files were loaded one at a time (calling the control file for each data file) it would be possible to pass the filename as a variable to the control file, but with many files being continuosly loaded this would have a large impact on performance.

Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Ian
