I need to load a constant date into a column (01/01/2002) and I need to use
direct path loading.  I tried:

creation_date "to_date('01/01/2002','dd/mm/yyyy')",

SQL*Loader-417: SQL string (on column CREATION_DATE) not allowed in direct
path.

This works with conventional path load.  I have tried using constant and it
gives me an error.

How do I get around this?

Thanks,
