Subject: Datafile with no extension using sqlldr

Hi,
 
Oracle 8.1.7 on SUN Solaris 5.8
 
I want to load a datafile with no extension into Oracle using SQL*Loader. But it looks for a file with a .dat extension. This is the exact error message I got:
 
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (emp.dat)
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The system cannot find the file specified.
 
I have tried a number of ways but in vain. I understand I can rename the file. But, is there any other way to load a datafile with no extension?
 
TIA,
Krishna
