This module intends to scan and build a column definition from a plain text file. Then you can write out the field/column definiton, or pass it to Data::DisplayDescribed module to display part or all the records, or pass it to Oracle::DataLoader to generate SQL code, control file, and to be used by Oracle SQL*Loader to load the records into Oracle database. enteredby: GEOTIGER (Hanming Tu) enteredon: Tue Feb 12 20:03:54 2002 GMT The resulting entry would be: Data:: ::Describe bdpOg Scan and build datatype for fields in a file GEOTIGER Thanks for registering, The Pause Team PS: The following links are only valid for module list maintainers: Registration form with editing capabilities: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=d8000000_77fb4c5be4f8ff00&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_preview=1 Immediate (one click) registration: https://pause.perl.org/pause/authenquery?ACTION=add_mod&USERID=d8000000_77fb4c5be4f8ff00&SUBMIT_pause99_add_mod_insertit=1
