hi,
i need a clarification on sql loader's features.
can the datafile which is feeded to the loader contain queries or sql functions in its

records instead of data so that the loader executes the queries and replace them with data

and later insert the records into the tables.
lets suppose the .dat file looks as follows

"sony",select entity from item where id==1
"ferrari", "car"

suppose that item is a table in the database with two coloumns(id,entity)which is already

filled.
can the loader execute the above query in the first record and replace it with data and then

load it in to the database . plz help me. regards

satish
