SQL*Loader Case Studies, see Case Study 5: Loading Data into Multiple Tables - Loads data into multiple tables in one run

This is a perfect case where External Tables would make this easy. I do not think it is possible even with the link Michel sent as that would be to load "rows" into separate tables, not columns (although I do admin I did not look at the link, because from what I remember of the case studies, they did not include this scenario, but maybe now they do).

There is no need that all tables use the same columns in the example.
Barbara showed several examples here.
I also prefer external table as I'm far better in SQL than in SQL*Loader.
