Sorry, I may not understand it.

I re-coded it as follows but it returns errors:

goldfish is the loginName
passcode is the password



Code:
#!/bin/ksh
export DATAFILE=/home/bueuat/hcbill/account/goldfish+passcode
export INFILE=${INFILE_PATH}/${JOBNAME}.txt
export JOBLOG=${LOG_PATH}/${JOBNAME}_${DATE}.log
export SQLLDR_CTL=${SQLLDR_CTL_PATH}/${JOBNAME}.ctl

#=================================================
# Get private data from data file readable by everyone.
#=================================================

read -r loginName loginName < "$DATAFILE"

#=================================================
# Run SQL Loader
#=================================================

sqlplus -S $loginName@BUEUAT/$password <<EOF

sqlldr $loginName@BUEUAT/$password log=$JOBLOG control=$SQLLDR_CTL data=$INFILE errors=10000 direct=true rows=10000

Even if I changed the line to :

Code:
 export DATAFILE=/home/bueuat/hcbill/account/goldfish passcode

The system returns this error :

Code:
 passcode: This is not an identifier.


Thanks much.
