To those thinking of answering this question, There is additional
information.

For some reason, I found out that the version of PHPMyAdmin at my web
hosting provider was missing the "Insert data from a text file into the
table" feature found at the bottom of the page after clicking on the
name of the table.

I thought that the reason for this was because they were using an older
version of PHPMyAdmin, so he was kind enough to download and install the
recent stable version into a folder under my hosting account via ftp. He
told me this copy was for me alone to use, since he could not upgrade it
for the entire system.

After I hung up with him, I launched the version of PHPMyAdmin he
installed for me and went to look for the feature. Unfortunately, the
feature was still not there!

Is this feature special, an add on to PHPMyAdmin? Or should it be there
with the standard installation? If it is special, where can it be found?

Thank you for your help.

Joe.

Hello folks,
 
What is the best way to import an excel spreadsheet, or text file for
that matter into a table?
 
Is there a way to do this with PHPMyAdmin?
 
Thank you so much for your kind help.
