Single data column
As stated beside the button, the majority of the work in terms of parsing the file must occur in a subsequent procedure within the data warehouse. The data is dumped into a single column. The task of coding a procedure to parse the data must then be undertaken. Three columns are created under Oracle. These include the data column, a sequence column (row_sequence) and the file name column (row_file_name). The file name and sequence columns can be deleted if they are not required for a File based load.
