Ken,

IMHO, you will need to load the data into a temp table, and process the data
using a PL/SQL block.  Just a couple of questions:

Are there ALWAYS 10 cnum values? for every RegNumber value?

If so, your PL/SQL block could look like:

declare
cursor c1
  select reg_number from temp_table;
rec_count number;
ten_count number;

reg_number number;
c_num      number;
begin

  open c1;
  fetch c1 into reg_number;
  while c1%found loop
    ten_count := 1;
    while ten_count < 10 loop
      fetch c1 into c_num;
      insert into Trademark_Class_Data(Registration_Number,Class_Code_ID)
             values(reg_number,c_num);
      ten_count := ten_count + 1;
    end while; 
    fetch c1 into reg_number;
    if c1%notfound then
       exit;
    end if;
  end loop;

  close c1;

good luck!

I need some help coding this scenario.  I have multiple records coming in a
delimited flat file.  Some of the records are:

RegNumber
Cnum1
Cnum2
.
.
.
Cnum10

There can be data in 1 to 10 of these fields.

I need to load this into this table.
Trademark_Class_Data
  Registration_Number (FK)
  Class_Code_ID (FK)

An example of the code.
RegNumber - 65304
Cnum1 - 45
Cnum2 - 54
Cnum3 - 100

So, my question is how do I code this so that I create 3 records in this
table as?

Registration_Number     Class_Code_ID
65304                   45
65304                   54
65304                   100

I need to take data that is contained in 1 record and load it into 3
records.

Any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
