Hello, I am starting to get some success from Load data. Ok, now with that,
here's my question, 'cause I can't find the answer in the manual.
Can I create a table *solely* by pointing to a text file with the
coloumns/records as part of the text file?
What I mean is, instead of creating the columns via telnet, such as:
Create Table (Tablename) (Column/datatype) Values (Values);
and then using load data to insert records, what if I want to create a table
called 'test' just by executing a test.txt file with the tables/records
already formatted? It would save time from having to create the table first.
Is *that* possible?
Thanks
PS. What is the correct text format for load data, anyway? I use tab
deliminted and I still get some errors, though some of the data shows.
