Re: Oracle::SQLLoader Error

That line in the source code references the environment variable "Oracle_Home" - perhaps that has not been set.
From the Oracle-SQLLoader README:

You should have the following environment variables set:
  ORACLE_HOME   - the location of the Oracle installation
  ORACLE_SID    - the database instance name
  ORACLE_USERID - the username and password to connect to the database
+ as the format is username/password (e.g. scott/tiger)

Thank you so much for your input! That worked. I was missing the environment variables. Below is the code that worked.

#!/usr/local/bin/perl

use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use Oracle::SQLLoader qw/$CHAR $INT $DECIMAL $DATE/;

# Oracle Path
$ENV{'ORACLE_HOME'} = "C:/oracle/ora92"; 
$ENV{'ORACLE_USER'} = "xxxx"; 
$ENV{'ORACLE_PASS'} = "xxxx";
$ENV{'ORACLE_SID'} = "xxxxx";

my $user = $ENV{'ORACLE_USER'};
my $pass = $ENV{'ORACLE_PASS'};
my $sid = $ENV{'ORACLE_SID'}; 

### load a simple comma-delimited file to a single table
my $ldr = new Oracle::SQLLoader(
                 infile => 'C:\Sales_Report_Thru_12_March_2009.csv',
                 terminated_by => ',',
                 username => $user,
                 password => $pass,
                sid => $sid
                    );
                   
$ldr->addTable(table_name => 'fs_bbbs_collections',
               when_clauses => "WHEN (01) <> 'Location_ID'
                                and (01) <> 'Type_Description'
                                and (01) <> 'Type_ID'
