SQL Loader/External Table multiple record delimiters

m.abohsinJan 5 2010 — edited Mar 8 2010
Hi every one.

I have a strange problem, I have an external csv file which i wish to deal with (external tables or sql loader). This csv is totally not organized in structure and it contains records that are mixed together, meaning that some records are delimited by newline characters. So in short, i want to know if I will be able to load the data in this csv separating records by newline character and another character? So is that possible to have multiple record delimiters specified in the same ctl file?
