I am not, by any means, a SQL*Loader expert (Jonathan, I keep meaning to get your book!)

Here's the thing:

I have a flat file with character data that includes special characters
(like accents and diacritical marks over letters). When I load the data
in using SQL*Loader, the special characters disappear and are replaced by the letter (so Dvorák goes on as Dvorak).

How can I get the data in as it should be? I've been reading and will continue to read the fine manual, but I'm not finding this...

Help!

Rachel
