I do not claim to be a guru, but I do happen to have Jonathan's book

What error are you getting?
Can you post the lines from the

Gurus,
I have a special scenario to load data into tables
with SQL*Loader.
My SQL Loader data is not fixed format. It changes

Chaim,
Check out the sqlldr case studies on OTN. Ross has the right idea with
the NULLIF. Here's a general description from OTN:
Loading All-Blank Fields
Totally blank fields for numeric or DATE fields cause the record to be
rejected. To load one of these fields as null, use the
You might want to look into the 'defaultif' option in the control file.
