No records in table using sql*loader

Here are the details:
The csv file: "mystates.csv" in C: dir {in excel sheet}
12, 	Research, 	Saratoga
10, 	Accounting,	 Cleveland

Table
CREATE TABLE testdept
(deptno NUMBER(2) NOT NULL,
 dname VARCHAR2(14),
 loc VARCHAR2(13));

control file is "mystates.ctl" in C:dir
LOAD DATA
INFILE 'c:\mystates.csv'
INTO TABLE testdept
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '"'
(deptno, dname, loc)


And in the command prompt i tried the following and got the o/p as
C:\>sqlldr macjyo/macjyo@testdb control='c:\mystates.ctl'

As suggested in the BAD file
Quote:
Column not found before end of logical record (use TRAILING NULLCOLS)
modify control file as
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
TRAILING NULLCOLS              --> add this line


"15 lines in bad file" against "3 lines in data file" probably means that there are 12 empty lines behind the last meaningful line in the file; perhaps you'd want to delete them.

Sorry, here it is my control file

load data
infile 'D:\Profiles\bonita\Desktop\loadfile.csv'
into table emp_excel
fields terminated by ","
optionally enclosed by '"'
trailing nullcols
(empno,ename,edate)

Got ' Commit point reached. Logical Record count 4 '. But nothing is table. Please let me know. Thank you.

The problem is that the bad file contains all records from .csv file.

I used following command
c>sqlldr sa/sa@asd control=myloader.ctl bad = mybad.txt

mynad.txt shows extact the same data that be suposed in sa.emp_excel table.

thank you.
