Title: Uploading a file into a database....ideas please.

Hi all,

I have several text files that need to be uploaded each week to a mySQL db.
At the moment I'm deleting the tables via telnet then exporting them via ODBC.

I have tried uploading in the following ways.

1. Using the copy command, but there are insufficient privileges on the server (security reasons).
2. FTPing the text files in the php script but the version of PHP doesn't allow this. (Updating it not an option).
3. Opening the file remotely (but the file is on my local pc).

I'm stuck myself,

please help.

Thanks in advance.
Sam Rose
