    Arrow SQL Loader Date prior to 1950

    Hi,

    I am trying to load some data using SQL Loader.
    If I try to insert a date prior to 1950 (ie 1942 for example) then it's loaded as 2042 in my oracle table !

    What's the problem... ? Is there a parameter I should change ?

    Thanks.
    Fabien
