Possible solution?
Here is what I did...

In the "myscript.sh" script which is my main script, I do the following call...
sqlplus -s @load.sql>$now.log

load.sql is my file that contains all the queries and the sqlldr command
This is what is inside load.sql

username/password@database
truncate table table1;
! sqlldr username/password@database control=dbload.ctl
truncate table table2;
insert into table2 select id, min(STARTDATE) as startdate from table1 group by id, to_char(STARTDATE,'mm/dd/yyyy');
exit

I found out that using the "!" option with in sqlplus gives the control to the OS to run my sqlldr command, complete the dataload and then continue with the remaining 2 sql commands.

Please let me know if I got it all correctly. Should I be looking for anything else?

Thanks
RG
