Directly from the "Oracle8i Utilities" manual

"Because the following words have special meanings for SQL*Loader, Oracle
Corporation recommends that you do not use them as names for tables or
columns. If you do use them, the names should be enclosed in double
quotation marks. "

Can anyone help?

I am attempting to load a table, using SQL*Loader, where the table has a
column named "PARTITION".  Partition is a SQL*Loader reserved word and the
load failed with: SQL*Loader-350 Expecting column name found "partition".

If anyone has a solution or workaround for this gotcha, I'd like to know
what you have done.

Thanks very much.
