Example of a SQL*Load control file to load a file, skipping the first line,
replacing the data in the table, with comma-separated, double-quote
enclosed data, using the decode function on one of the columns.
OPTIONS (SKIP=1)
LOAD DATA
INFILE "data.dat"
INTO TABLE mytable REPLACE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(
REC_TYPE char,
VCID char,
SHIP_TO_ID char "decode(:SHIP_TO_ID, '?', '0')"
)
Maybe this is what you're looking for?

Hallo you DBA's:
How can I write a script in ctl-file if I want to import a textfile. I want
to use the command decode because I want to replace the character '?' with
a 0 (zero), which is a number field inthe database.
How can I do this. I want to do it while the sqlldrscript is running.
Sincerely
Roland Sköldblom
