Hi all,
I am using the sql*loader utility to upload new records to a table. I really need this to occur 3 times daily and would like to automate the uploads. I often use dbms_job.submit with my procedures. Is there any way to schedule the use of the sql*loader utility maybe along the same lines as I would a procedure? Or, is there a better approach to schedule this?
Thanks!
Jami
 
You may use your OS-specific sceduler, at or cron. You may also insert new records from stored procedure by UTL_FILE package.
