Importing TXT to Oracle with VB app

Help please!

What's the best way to import a large (35 MB) tab-delimited text file into Oracle? It must be done from within a VB App. I guess the worst way is using a loop through all records, and parsing and INSERTing them. Perhaps I could use some ODBC definition to treat the TXT as a table..? Or could I shell some Oracle tool with the appropiate command line parameters to do the task?

I'm using RDO and VB5. Any help greatly appreciated.

TIA
