I tried loading the data using 't'
It works but it also skips the null data in a column and loads the next available data into the null data column
e.g.; 222 rrr <"null"> ggg

it loads ggg in the third column. I want null value there. NULLIF BLANKS doesn't work
ANy ideas???

For a tab-delimited input file, in your control file, use:

FIELDS TERMINATED BY X'09'
