Jay I hope my reply didn't sound harsh. You are right, it is always a good idea to briefly describe what you've tried since that will allow everyone to make better use of their time. I was just trying to point out one of the great benefits I've derived from the experts on this list (and I don't count myself one of them by any means) is that they tend to think up quick, ingenious tests. And I've learned something useful for import scripts myself.

Your advise about testing is noted, but in this case based on incorrect assumptions. I used most of the major comments in PL/SQL, Java, etc. Though I missed trying the #, which per Barbara's reply seems to be the correct one. In my next posting I will make sure that I list all steps taken.
