I would think you could apply a sql operator to the field like:

field 1 position (1:8) integer external "TRANSLATE(RTRIM(:field1),'N/A', '0')".

You should be able to translate your rogue characters or trim them. The example I am using is out of the utilities manual.

We use MS, variable-length data.

Huascar

Are you on Unix or MS? Was the file you are loading created on Unix or
MS? Are you loading variable-length data or fixed-format?

Subject: SQL Loader/carriage return

I have a problem with carriage return and line feeder: /r/n, importing Text files (with schema.ini) through SQL*Loader. These characters come like data and generate errors due to the row terminator is /r/n too. Do you know some way of import these data without parsing the Text file?

Thank you!
