Hi Roland,

Try using the DECODE statement rather than TRANSLATE:

BUT_OMS "DECODE(:BUT_OMS, '!','99','?','No Info',:BUT_OMS)",

The above says:

If the value of BUT_OMS='!', change it to '99', elsif the value of BUT_OMS='?', change it to 'No Info', else

insert the value provided.

Hope this helps

Hallo all you DBA's

How do I write in sqlloader if i want to replace, translate the caracter ? with 'No info' and the character ! with the value '99'. I have this statement already.

BUT_OMS "TRANSLATE(:BUT_OMS, '!','99')", Thanks in advance

Roland S
