To ignore the delimiter in specific fields in sql loader

862489Jul 27 2017 — edited Jul 27 2017

Hi ,

I am using sql loader to load data from my file (csv)  to the table. I am replacing with the pipe symbol in my unix script and loading into the table using sql loader.

I have used pipe symbol as delimiter in the sql loader.

ie. fields terminated by '"|". There are specific fields which contain the delimiter inside the field

for eg: Address_1 field has C|O 3rd STREET

Because of this, it treats as separate fields and getting inserted to adjacent columns in table.

Pls suggest is there a way to ignore the delimiter in specific fields in the sql loader control file

Thanks
