Could you not simply open the .csv file and manually delete the first row?
As for your second question, I believe you can just not mention the column
you want to leave out in the control file.

Friends,
I have the classic case of a comma separated text file which I want to
upload
and I need to know how can I enforce the following behavior of the SQL
Loader:
1. To ignore the first row of the data file (which contains the column
titles)
2. Avoid uploading of a column from the middle of the data file
Thanks in advance,
Pierre
