Need Help with numeric formatting



I might have sent this message before

I have an input file with field the has a field
description of 12v6 (12digits)implied decimal (6 digits)
If I look at the data it looks like this
555555555555123456.
I am trying to load this into an oracle db. The field on
the table is also 12v6.  I am getting  an oracle error
because the the field is being loaded with all 18 digits
to the left of the decimal.
How do I format it as 555555555555.123456
Thanks
