Hello guys and girls, please help me.

I'm just beginning with oracle, being confronted with
the following problem making the ctl.file.

The database contains ä table with one single field, let say, why not, money : datatype number(8,2).

The input file is variable of length, contains the
delimiter &#124, for example :

54123.45
34.20|

it's in the input file regarded as dec(8,2); the unload-specification from an informix-database.

how to make the field specification ?

money integer ?
money dec(8,2) ?
maybe with zones ?

I've tried several things, but it didnt work out.
So, if you have a good suggestion, mail me.

The last question : do you know a website with fabulous

Well, that's it.
I want to excuse me for my poor knowledge, as i said before, i'm no pro, not at all. Just beginning,

with friendly regards from the netherlands,

Koos
