Hi Rajan,

if you're using the "Table Files..." wizard to construct the LOAD statement for your Excel, then

  1. when you get to the stage with the "Enable Transformation Step", press that button.  It will then give you a grid view of your data on its 'Garbage' tab. 
  2. Select the row you want to ignore by clicking on its number and the press 'Delete Marked'. 
  3. From there, finish the wizard by clicking Next and/or Finish.

You will then observe that the resulting LOAD statement includes a filter for removing that row every time.

Regards,

Angus.
