You have not mentioned the platform. So the directories may be different from what is given below. This is how you would do it on a AT&T GIS (NCR) 3000 series machine:

  1. cd to $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/admin/help
  2. log into SQL*Plus as 'system' and run helptbl.sql
  3. Run SQL*Loader with the following control files: mnuxhelp.ctl, plshelp.ctl, plushelp.ctl and sqlhelp.ctl
     sqlldr userid=system/system_password control=mnuxhelp.ctl log=mnu.log 
                 bad=mnu.bad
     If you like, specify rows, bindsize, etc.

4. Again log into SQL*Plus as user 'system' and run helpindx.sql

Hope this helps
