Hi,

I am experiencing somewhat same issue...but have been unable to resolve it(new to Oracle)

I am getting the infile from flat file(data dump from SQL) using sqlldr to upload data to the Oracle table...since the data is already in the flat file...I cannot do anything in the SQL to pre-format the data...

Sample of ERROR I am getting - Column CREATE_DATE which has date and time - happens to other date time columns also if remove the CREATE_DATE from Control file(happens to every single line of record):

==========================================
Record 2: Rejected - Error on table LGCY_CHS.METS_CHS_USER_PRIV, column CREATE_DATE.
ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0

Record 3: Rejected - Error on table LGCY_CHS.METS_CHS_USER_PRIV, column CREATE_DATE.
ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0

Record 4: Rejected - Error on table LGCY_CHS.METS_CHS_USER_PRIV, column CREATE_DATE.
ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0

Record 5: Rejected - Error on table LGCY_CHS.METS_CHS_USER_PRIV, column CREATE_DATE.
ORA-01841: (full) year must be between -4713 and +9999, and not be 0

This was split from an unrelated thread. Your problem has nothing to do with null values for dates. The problem is that your posted control file does not match your posted data file for many columns. For example, your control file says that your second column is integer external, but your data contains characters. A null value would be when you have two delimiters with nothing inbetween, like ||. If you have columns in your table for which you do not have values in your data, then do not list those columns in your control file. If you have values in your data that do not belong in any column in your table, then make them filler datatype in your control file. You should post your table structure with your control file and data and example of the result that you expect for at least one row of data.
