Hello everybody, I need to use sqlldr for parsing a csv file and populate a table. As csv file is potentially very large, I'd like to ask: is there a limit respect to the number of records that the csv can contain?

Thank you!

Ok, and: is there a limit on the size (kb) of the input size, or to the number of columns that sqlldr is able to handle?

Thank u

Can you please tell us the difference between a csv file and a txt file, other that its extension?!

There is no such limit on an inputfile for SQL*Loader.

Ok, so I should't have any problem with the number of lines and columns of the file. If I undestand well, the only linit is due to the OS.
Thank you very much!
