The SQL-LDR documentation states that you need to do a convetional Path Load:

When you want to apply SQL functions to data fields. SQL functions are not available during a direct path load

I have TimeStamp data stored in a CSV file that I’m loading with SQL-LDR by describing the fields as such:

STARTTIME       'To_TimeStamp(:STARTTIME,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS.FF6')', COMPLETIONTIME  'To_TimeStamp(:COMPLETIONTIME,'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS.FF6')' 

So my question is: Can you load timestamp data without a function, or is it the case that you can not do a Direct Path Load when Loading TimeStamp data?
