I am working on a interface that requires a SQL loader to import data into a table from a delimited txt file. I am having issues trying to specify the INFILE file name because it contains the date within the file name.
The file to be imported is in the following format:
CMSYYYYMMDD.txt
ie. CMS20080827.txt
Below is a portion of my code:
LOAD DATA
INFILE '$NYSFMS_TOP/data/CMS/CMS||to_char(date "yyyymmdd")||.txt'
APPEND
INTO TABLE NYSFMS.NYSIF_CMS_TRANSACTIONS
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|
I have not tested this yet, it is correct or is there another way to do this?
Thanks ahead of time.
Steve

This will not work.
Pass the infile name from command line and not in control file then you can all what can do a shell script.
