I don't use oracle, but if it supports newlines in its fields, you may want to
change the alt-enter to a unique character (like a |). Import this data into
Oracle and then do something(?) in oracle to change that character back to a
linefeed.

Hi,
I am trying to convert XLS to CSV and then load to Oracle. But in XLS i
have some field value with Carriage Return. So it is making new records. Is
there anyway i can do while converting? I have couple of them coming
frequently.
