SNIP------------------------------------------- You need to end each INSERT INTO statement with a semicolon (;), not a
comma (,). Also pressing <enter> after each one will allow you to easier diagnose any problems that might come up. --------------------------------------------- I have run the commands as single insert statements with the results below. The one with the child process error I do not know how to resolve. That is why I was trying to write "one insert statement" with a semicolon at the end. Two of the inserts seem to fail because MySQL sees my VALUES as unknown columns. Any other ideas out there?
