Hi,
There are couple of ways to do it other than loader.
1) You can load the file into a clob and make use of the sys.xmlparser and sys.xslprocessor packages to load it to files.
2) You can load the file into a clob and make use of the dbms_xmlsave package to load it. The above one allows you to customize and load whereas here the available functionality is minimal.

hi,If you are using SQL server then you have an in-built option in the SQL Server itself. You can read xml in db through stored procedures.sp_xml_preparedocument - search for this option in sql server.
