Hi Jeff,
You are right. This is not good to save CSV in database. I also don't save xml data into database.
I think Sathya (who proposed that solution) was thinking that I save my CSV in database & this is the query to fetch records.
But this is not the case. Actually, I have to import contacts CSV in my web application. Here I convert this CSV contacts into XML & pass this XML to database as XML data type.
Here @xmlData is the variable which receives input data in my stored procedure. then I extract data with the help of XQuery & save into my table.
