SQL*Loader lowercase insert [message #516403]

Using Oracel SQL*Loader, is it possible to specify insert type statements? I need to know if i can pass a lower type call to a column. Specifically, if one of the entries is: username=MyUserName@gmail.com ... Then I need it to do the following lower(username) record inserts as myusername@gmail.com

Any help is greatly appreciated. I'm a bit stuck at the moment. Sad

I've googled and found LCase (), but I don't know if I'm barking up the wrong tree with that function. Thanks!

It would be helpful if you followed Posting Guidelines - http://www.orafaq.com/forum/t/88153/0/

I do not understand what you have or what you want to achieve?
You do not provide sample file data, CREATE TABLE statement, or exact what you expect/desire in the table after it gets loaded.

Just use the following in your SQL*Loader control file:

username "lower (:username)"

Thanks so much that was exactly what I was looking for!

Next time I post here I'll try to be more detailed and I'll include sample file data.

Thanks again.
