Subject: SQL Loader Input File Situation
8.1.7
I am loading an input file to a single DB table. The input file is
different than the table I'm loading and contains fields I don't need to
load. I do not want to load some of the input fields. The input file has
11 cols. and I need to ignore 5 of them. The DB table has 15 cols and I
know how to ignore them with the filler clause. The input file is a
delimited flat file. How do I tell SQL*Loader not to load various input
fields?
Thanks,
