Hai Sam,
ORA-01401: inserted value too large for column
Thanks

Do a
DESC TEST1;
Then, determine if the data you are trying to insert is longer than a value is allowed for a particular column.
Cheers,

possible solution
LOOKS LIKE it's your 'remarks' field.
you need to specify how many characters that field is going to be.
edit your loader file to the length of that column like below:
REMARKS char(2000),
hope that works.

HI is your
INQ_STATUS,
MEDIA_ID
the right way round the data is
"Employment News",1
Not sure what kind of descriptions you use for inq_status but Employment News appears to be a Media name.
