Hi,

does anyone know about problems reading a big size file in a procedure pl/sql, using Oracle package UTL_FILE?

Thanks in advance,
 
Hi
Normally you can read max 1023 bytes per line of the file. If you want to read larger lines you should use the overloaded version of FOPEN:
UTL_FILE.FOPEN (
location IN VARCHAR2,
filename IN VARCHAR2,
open_mode IN VARCHAR2,
max_linesize IN BINARY_INTEGER)
RETURN file_type;

greetings
Diederik
