Hi,
there is no utility from Oracle like "unload" in Informix, but with a bit of SQL you can get it done.
it's like
select "'"| name |"'"|, nickname |"'" from users;

hope that helps

regards Thomas

I've posted a script that will dump a table delimited as you specify to an ascii file and also build a sqlldr control file to load it back in. To see it, login to my homepage, http://home.earthlink.net/~ppadgett and follow the career then code links.
Hope this helps.
