Using sqlldr to load old UNIFY data into oracle 11g

Question

I have a dump of an old UNIFY database whitch I need to build a controlfile to import to oracle using sql loader.
the main problem is that the file is containing records for 64 tables
the dumpfile is starting with the name of the table, and then data for each column in that table. like this:
RSLT|0|26/09/2005|1281|2|LD|S1|0|0|  223|223.000000|Centra|27/09/2005|10:13|Centra|27/09/2005|10:13|3|0|3984|180|24069844193|379650048|247075485|134233305|0|
SMPL|0|26/09/2005|1281|3||5|ALLE|2|1|177|0||26/09/2005|**:**|svi2|||**/**/****|**:**||0||0|0|**/**/****|00:01||286138573|2560|
I have build the ny datamodel in oracle, and it is the same as in the old UNIFY system. so that is not a problem.
but HOW do I tell sqlldr that there is not data from just one table but 64..??
the tablenames and how to difference them is the main problem..
This is an urgent issue.. I need helt fast.
any suggestions?

Hi,
You can do something like that
--- Control file--------------
cat aa.ctl
LOAD DATA
INFILE '/home/oracle/MYSHELL/aa.txt'
TRUNCATE
INTO TABLE RSLT
WHEN DBNAME = 'RSLT'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
DBNAME,
col_1,
col_2,
col_3,
col_4
INTO TABLE SMPL
WHEN DBNAME = 'SMPL'
FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|'
DBNAME position(1),
col_1,
col_2,
col_3,
col_4
-- dat file----------
cat aa.txt
RSLT|0|26/09/2005|1281|2
SMPL|0|26/09/2005|1281|3
SQL> host sqlldr me/** control=aa.ctl
