    How to load tab separated,tab delimited datafile with SQLLDR

    Hi,
    I need to load some data using SQLLDR. It is a .txt file with tab delimited data and the data file may contain tabs or spaces within column data. Cld anyone suggest how it can be loaded? Thanks.
    e.g.
    EmpID EmpName EmpAdd1 EmpAdd2
    1000 SAM KING SUITE 5 JOHNSON CITY TX
    where EmpId = 1000
    EmpName SAM KING(tab/space separated)
    EmpAdd1 SUITE 5 JOHNSON CITY (tab/space separated)
    Emp Add2 TX

    What it is currently doing is loading 'SAM' in the EmpName and 'KING' in the EmpAdd1 which is what I dont want. Pls suggest.

    Cool Suggestion

    We suggest you:

    1) Post the description of the target table
    2) Post the sql loader control file
    3) Post the exact sample data using "code" tags to preserve formatting
