SQL Loader

[Demetris]

Hello there!
I am trying to read from a text file and load a table in ORACLE8i.
For example I have the following line:

00000405152-00000005152-0000000400000

and my table is as follows:

num1 number(11,2)
num2 number(11,2)
num3 number(13,2)

The first number as you can see from the line above should be negative (the
dash between the first two number).
My question is how can I load that and tell ORACLE that it is a negative
number?

Thanks
Demetris
