		Hi All, 
I am using sqlldr inside a shell script, specifying all necessary keywords to it like data,control etc. I also use keyword silent=header. 
Now while the shell script is running , if I use the command ps -Af (in UNIX) , it shows the username and password used in sqlldr.  
 
Could anybody please suggest how to suppress this username/password displayed while using ps -Af . 
 
Thanks, 
Monika

		i beleive, you can use a parameter file.
and use OS facilities to secure the file from other users
[b] quoting the docs [/b]
PARFILE specifies the name of a file that contains commonly used command-line parameters. For example, the command line could read:
sqlldr PARFILE=example.par
The parameter file could have the following contents:
USERID=scott/tiger
CONTROL=example.ctl
ERRORS=9999
LOG=example.log
