Hi All

Can we place our control file on a server(server 1) other than the one(server 2) where we want to insert data and use sql*loader from server 1 to load data into table in server 2 .(server 1 has Oracle 9i and server 2 has oracle 10g).

Are you talking about sql*loader control file?
It is just a client side file. Controlfile will need to ***see*** the datafile to be loaded.
So, nfs mount the remote datafile if you want.

>>Is it possible and how?
Yes. You should use Java or OCI.
Save yourself from the pain and use external tables~
