Re: Data load options

[okhalid]

hello O'Neill, Sean

you can also use UTL_FILE Package provided by ORACLE to load data in to
Oracle Database.
if u'r Data Model is too complex then UTL_FILE Package is a better choice
because it gives you lot of control
for simple data loading SQL Loader is very efficient

I'm trying to compile a list of options for loading data into an Oracle
database on NT platform.  What I've come up with so far is:
[1] SQL script that performs inserts, updates.
[2] SQL Loader utility
[3] Import utility

Are there others?
Anyone care to share experience based opinions on pros and cons of the
methods?
