Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> SQL Loader problem
Hi All,
I'm trying to use SQL Loader to load data from a text file into a table. However, I always get error as column SKILL_DESCRIPTION field in data file exceeds maximum length where the column SKILL_DESCRIPTION is declared as varchar2(4000). I know the data is <4000 characters, but >1000 characters. It was inserted successfully when I execute insert statement in TOAD as:
insert into skills_tmp values(......);
Is there any option in SQL Loader I have to set in order to load a long string? Thanks for all the inputs in advance.
Anna
