But from a DB standpoint, I see the data as needed in the database, hence the load. Agreed, he didn't explicitly ask how to load it, but it's implied on how he wants to use the data.

As a learning experience, I tried playing with paste a bit based on those earlier posts, and couldn't get it working in Oracle, hence my comments on "still not sure about this" Smilie

Just going by what I know is a basic, and robust solution:

1) load data into a table.
2) use data in table in query.

since in Oracle, it's very "odd" to use data in a query "Directly" from a file (other than perhaps an external table).
