I believe the parameter is "data=<whatever>" on the command line. Not sure if you can specify multiple datafiles (or at least I haven't tried).

Can I use a variable in the INFILE string in a CTL file for sqlloader?

i.e. the line currently reads:

INFILE '/m17/oradata/work/qtr1/db_file1.ing'

and I would to have something like

X = '/m17/oradata/work/qtr1'

INFILE $X/db_file1.ing

The reason is that I have 32 ctl files and am loading data for many different qtr's and am changing the ctl files every time. I guess it might be easier to just move the data files into a temp directory for loading, then move them out when done and move the next batch in.

Thoughts?
