RE: dump to CSV (comma-separated values) file format

        Yeah, the "traditional" (9i) way of external tables is still there in 10g. It depends what access driver you're using to access the table. If you're using sql*loader, you can read from a flat file. If you're using the new datapump driver (which support writing , but afaik no dml) you can write to the file. But then it's a binary file.

nice..thanks for the info guys (and for not RTFMing me :-) )
