    You can specify the column as a FILLER and sqlldr will skip that column. >For example:

    INTO TABLE MYTEST
    (
    col1 CHAR(20),
    col2 FILLER CHAR(30),
    col3 CHAR(20)
    )

    New one on me, what version did this arrive in?,
    I'm sure it didn't used to be possible.

    Typically people use "cut" or equivalent in Unix as a pre-process to do
    the same in lower versions.
