In the section “Bulk loading data using the LOAD TABLE statement” in Chapter 7, “Moving Data In and Out of Databases,” the syntax for the FORMAT option of the LOAD TABLE statement should not contain single quotes. The correct syntax is:
LOAD TABLE [ owner.]table-name [ ( load-specification, ... ) ] FROM 'filename-string', ... [ FORMAT { ascii | binary } ] ... [ DELIMITED BY string ] ... [ STRIP { ON | OFF } ] ... [ QUOTES { ON | OFF } ] ... [ ESCAPES { ON | OFF } ] ... [ ESCAPE CHARACTER character ] ... [ WITH CHECKPOINT ON|OFF ] ... [ load-options ]
