 Not sure how to do using sqlplus, but this task can be easily done if you have Toad . first Create the table with proper specification.             

select   from menu - database - import - table data

complete the wizard and it is done.

Convert the excel sheet into .CSV format and then use SQL Loader to load the data from .csv file into oracle database

Excel -> CSV -> Oracle

  • Save the Excel spreadsheet as file type 'CSV' (Comma-Separated Values).
  • Transfer the .csv file to the Oracle server (usually HP Unix).
  • Create the Oracle table, using the SQL CREATE TABLE statement to define the table's column lengths and types.
    Here's an example of an sqlplus 'CREATE TABLE' statement:
    CREATE TABLE SPECIES_RATINGS  
    (SPECIES VARCHAR2(10),
    COUNT NUMBER, RATING VARCHARC2(1));
  • Use sqlload to load the .csv file into the Oracle table.
    Create a sqlload control file like this:
    load data infile spec_rat.csv replace into table species_ratings fields terminated by ',' (species,count,rating) 
  • Invoke sqlload to read the .csv file into the new table, creating one row in the table for each line in the .csv file. This is done as a Unix command:
    % sqlload userid=username/password control= log=.log
    This will create a log file .log. Check it for loading errors.
  • Use these sqlplus commands to check the Oracle table:
     DESCRIBE SPECIES_RATINGS;  
    SELECT COUNT(*) FROM SPECIES_RATINGS;
    SELECT * FROM SPECIES_RATINGS WHERE ROWNUM < 6;
  • You're done.

    Balaji,

    If you are Good at Command line use SQL loaded to convert the data.

    IF you are GUI specialist use Toad..it's very easy.

    Thanks
