You could enable "Open Databases in Read and Write mode" on the Settings tab in the load script editor. This will allow you to use insert statements with the SQL keyword. However, this approach would be very slow as ODBC inserts execute one statement for each row of data.

I would recommend storing the table in a text file (see below) and then using your DB's bulk loading utility.

STORE tablename INTO filename.csv (txt);


Good luck.
