we have a Oracle 11g database, but it does not support UTF8 character set. Now we have received a file which contains records with Trade Mark symbol (special character). Now when we are trying to load the record, it is getting loaded with a sign "?". As a result when we try to display record in web application, the application is not able to show the records properly.

I have to load a fixed width file using sql loader utility. But the records have multiple special characters. writing / modifying the loader utility to load the data.
--Script to create the table
create table t1 (
ip1 varchar2(2),
ip2 number,
ip3 number);
--loader utility
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'c:inputfile.dat'
BADFILE 'c:adfile.bad'
REPLACE
INTO TABLE t1
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '°'
(
ip1POSITION(1:2) CHAR,
ip2POSITION(3:17) INTEGER EXTERNAL ":ip2/100",
ip3POSITION(18:32) INTEGER EXTERNAL ":ip3/100",
)
--data file
9900000000000000000000059762160°
9900009694635473¶00009693856712-
99000024383898654000025664467904
--sql version i am using
SQL*Loader: Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production on Wed Mar 7 18:32:33 2012
Copyright (c) 1982, 2002, Oracle Corporation. All rights reserved.
In the above mentioned data file, records has multiple special characters like '°','¶' ,'-'.
All these special characters have some meaning.
eg: '°' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -1
'¶' specifies the above column needs to be multiplied by -0.1
what changes need to be made in loader utility for the same? Also, will there be any change in the utility if I am using higher version of oracle?

Is there any way I can use some escape character for loading this type of data.

We completed creating a replicate of dB_01 to dB_02 (housed in a single DEV server). But dB_02 had only table structures (no records). What would be our fastest option (tools, commands, etc.) to load more than a thousand new records for each of the 20 tables of dB_02?

I have a small confusion in direct path loading. Will direct path load ever use memory (SGA)? If yes, why it is not generating redo? If no, can we write into a block at file system level directly.

I'm not sure if this is so much a SQL Loader problem as it is a database understanding problem, but here it is. I am having trouble loading data into a table (using SQL Loader) due to the fact that I am trying to load data row by row, into corresponding columns.
TestFile.csv
testvalue1, 123445
testvalue2, test
testvalue3, 455321
testvalue4, 65742
testvalue5, 5719
So, using the above data, I am trying to load the value for 'testvalue1' into a column defined as 'testvalue1'; the value for 'testvalue2' into a column defined as 'testvalue2' and so on. From my understanding, SQL loader loads by column not by row, so I am not even sure if this is possible.

I am trying to load multiple XML files into Oracle DB using SQL Loader. The filenames of the XML files starts with a description and then numbers, where the numbers are different each time.
Here's my CTL file:
LOAD DATA
INFILE *
INTO TABLE XML_TABLE TRUNCATE
xmltype(XML_TABLE)
FIELDS
(
[code]....
I don't want to keep having to go into the ctl file and change the numbers of the xml file. Is there a way where I could just load all .xml files that begins with 'description'? Like maybe
description*.xml

I have the following table intra_trades with t_id as the primary key. There is a trigger on that table that gets the next sequence and inserts it into the t_id column for every insert. I need to load data into that table using SqlLoader as chunks of 3000 rows and return the t_id back the script that Sqlload the data so that it can use that t_id's for the next process in the script.
intra_trades
t_id NUMBER(15) pk
t_name VARCHAR2(30)
t_loc VARCHAR2(40)
t_start TIMESTSTAMP
t_end TIMESTSTAMP
[code]....
The problem is that the only unique key on that table is the t_id which has a sequence on it and it is the pk. There can be duplicate rows in that table to meet the business needs for the company. So it is hard to associate the rest of the data in a row with t_id. The only thing I can think of is return the t_ids in the order it inserted so if the script keeps the order of rows in the memory it can associate the tid with the rest of the intra_trades info.How can I make the sqlloader return an array of t_ids that inserted? I need to return the t_ids's in the order it inserted so that the script can associate the t_id with the rest of the rest of the data in a row.

I am doing a simple test and need to populate a small table with some data.
My table looks like this:
SQL> desc clob_test
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
ID NUMBER(20)
C1 CLOB
I have a pipe delimited data file ID range 1-50000 and random characters with a length of 100-4000 bytes for the clob field.
My control file looks like this but I am guessing it is wrong:
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'clob_test.dat'
INTO TABLE CLOB_TEST
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(
ID INTEGER EXTERNAL NULLIF (ID=BLANKS)
, C1
)
Let me know what I need to do to my .ctl file in order to load this data?

Here's my table:
SQL> desc stg_query_overflow
Name Null? Type
----------------------------------------- -------- ----------------------------
HOSTNAME VARCHAR2(50)
NPSID NUMBER
NPSINSTANCEID NUMBER
OPID NUMBER
[code]....
Here's my controlfile:
load data
infile '/u01/tony/server_name/query_overflow.dat'
badfile '/opt/oracle/tony/sql_dir/bad/server_name_query_overflow.bad'
discardfile '/opt/oracle/tony/sql_dir/discard/server_name_query_overflow.dsc'
append
into table stg_query_overflow
[code]....
Here's a sample of data that I can't load into the table via sqlldr:
echo
echo ***** Creating view: "pul_promotion_response"
CREATE or replace VIEW "pul_promotion_response"
(
"promo_rsp_id",
"promo_hist_dtl_id",
"indiv_id",
[code]....
Here's the error(s) I receive in my log file:
Record 272: Rejected - Error on table STG_QUERY_OVERFLOW, column NPSID.
ORA-01722: invalid number
Record 273: Rejected - Error on table STG_QUERY_OVERFLOW, column NPSID.
ORA-01722: invalid number
As you can see, sqlldr is interpreting this vertical sql code as the npsid column, when in fact it is the querytext column. How can I insert each record when some of my data is in this vertical format?

I have a bunch of data in 50 excel files. I need to load all these 50 files into 50 different tables. I would like to do this in one script. I went through the forum to get this information, people suggested create a shell script etc or list the sqlldr command multiple times etc.
provide some clarity on this as to what's the best approach.If it is through shell scripting provide the shell script and instructions to execute it. Iam new to shell scripting.

Data
Sl#Emp_noNameAddress
00101Tom1/B-XYZ street
00202Jon1/C-XYZ Street
Employee Datafile
001, 01, Tom, 1/B-XYZ street
002,02,Jon, 1/C-XYZ Street
Above is a sample data file. Now I would like to import the data into an Oracle table called employee using Oracle 9i SQL Loader utility. But the table has only 3 fields (Emp_no,Name & Address), so I would like to skip Sl# while loading data. I do not want to manually modify data file. How should I write .ctl file.
Sample .ctl file.
load data
INFILE 'dataEmployee'
BADFILE 'Employee.bad'
DISCARDFILE 'Employee.dis'
into table Employee
fields terminated by ','
TRAILING NULLCOLS
(Emp_no NULLIF Emp_no = BLANKS,
Name NULLIF Name = BLANKS,
Address NULLIF Address = BLANKS

After exporting some data to excel, I noticed that on one row all the columns shifted over some. So I queried this record in the database and noticed that the ADDRESS field has some unknown characters at the end of it. They are little squares. I think they are TABS.
2630 LINDEN BLVD, APT. #8G(2 squares are in here)
ADDRESS_1 "TRIM(:ADDRESS_1)",
Besides trimming the data, is there some other function I can use to clean up the address further?

We load large amount of data into multiple tables using sqlldr. Amount of data that we need to load varies according to the situation. We want to estimate the tablespace usage growth due to this data load, so we can verify/extend the tablespaces before the data load. Though, setting to autoextend will work in this case, We want to avoid extending the tablespace during sqlldr executing due to performance.
Our initial attempt was to note the tablespace size before and after executing the sqlldr and use the delta. But this delta was not consistent in different environments for the same amount of data. Different environments mean different oracle servers, different existing sizes of tablespaces, One data file Vs multiple data files etc.
How do we reliably estimate how much tablespace we need for the given amount of data?

I am using Release 10.2.0.1.0 version of oracle. I am getting a special character, but i suspect it as any other language character.
Its appearing in my 'TOAD editor/Sql prompt editor' as 'A?'. but when i am selecting it from the table using below query, its giving 'No rows Returned'.
select id from tab1 where id like 'A%';
How can i be able to see the exact character or which editor will enable me to see the character?
I think sql developer GUI might be able to show the same but i dont have sql developer with me.

I have a pl/sql question about interpreting special characters in pl/sql. I am generating an update statement and get an invalid character when the customer name has an ampersand in it (&). I�m now generating the update statement to include the customer name cut up with concatenation characters surrounding the ampersand, for example �CSCP-C�||�&�||�E�. However, pl/sql is still not executing the update.
Here is the code.
SET PAGES 2000;
SET LINES 200;
SET SERVEROUTPUT ON;
SET VERIFY OFF;
spool update_table.log ;
[code]....
The RESULTS follow. Of course, I can copy this statement and execute in sqlplus without a problem.
---------------------------------------------
- UNKNOWN ERROR CONDITION
SQL = UPDATE mytable SET CUSTOMER_CORE = ('DSCP-C' || '&' || 'E') WHERE REC_ID = 170795889
