Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> sqlloader question
I need to load a text format file into my database using sqlloader. The
table I am loading into contains a special code column 9 positions long
with a following format ##--###--## (note dashes in between). Dashes are
being stored in the database! (don't ask me why :-) ). My input file data
for that column comes in straight text ( no dashes, of course ). It is 7
positions long.
Is there a way to somehow input dashes using control file while loading
data? I've looked 'concatenate' sqlloader command. It is not going to take
care of my need.
Thank you to everyone who replies. Have a safe a joyful new year.
