  Reminds me of the useless use of cat awards by Randal Schwartz, was it?

  cat test.txt | tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" > TEST.txt

  Can be --  tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" < test.txt > TEST.txt

  You can use this command on Unix to translate all lower-case characters to 
upper-case and then use sqlloader in direct mode :)

  $ cat test.txt 
  TesT
  TEST
  tEst
  test
  $ cat test.txt | tr "[:lower:]" "[:upper:]" > TEST.txt
  $ cat TEST.txt 
  TEST
  TEST
  TEST
  TEST

    Take a look at this section of the SQL Loader manual.
    
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/ldr_field_list.htm#sthref1238
    Tiny Url:  http://tinyurl.com/96xl5

    It shows how to apply SQL operaters to a field.

    It used to be that you could not do that on direct imports.

    Depending on version, that may have changed.

      Hi Team,

      We recieve data from various sources in lower,upper case.

      We want all the data to be stored in upper case in the table. The whole 
data will be loaded
      using sqlloader.

      Is there any way toload all the data in upper case / any method that 
makes sure that the table
      data is always in upper case.

      I cannot use the

      update ... set col1=upper(col1), col2=upper(col2) 
      as this would take long time to update the table everytime.

      Thanks in advance,
      Raj
