I agree with Stephen's recommendation to save the Excel spreadsheet to a CSV
file.
One problem I have encountered is that Microsoft will enclose a field in
delimiters when you "need" it. That means that for a given field, sometimes
it is enclosed in delimiters and sometimes not. Such inconsistency is hard
for SQL*Loader to deal with. I don't have a solution for this one, just
pointing out a problem that you may or may not encounter.
