Dear All,
I have a plain text file which show records like this:
20040519;;
33333333
22222222
00000002;;
How can I write up the control file properly to insert only those record without ";;" to table?
TIA.
Regards,
Wandy

What datatype is the column in the table that you are loading into? If it is a number datatype, then the non-numeric values containing ; will automatically be rejected. If it is a varchar2 datatype, then you could load all of the data, then delete the values containing ;.
