Hey yall, I have a delimited text file I'm trying to load into my db. The problem is that for whatever reason (totally beyond my control) the line and field delimiters include an Extended ASCII char (0xA0) like so:
05HIUT841427BLCA á Dell Computer á "One *Dell* Way, *Round Rock*Texas 78682" á DELL á TX á Eastern Operations á áá Is there any way I can set the FIELD TERMINATOR and LINE TERMINATOR to include this character so my LOAD DATA INFILE works? I tried using a variable and mysql didn't like it: set @field:=concat(' ',char(160),'\t'); set @line:=concat('\t',char(160),char(160),'\n'); load data infile 'C:\\Documents and Settings\\jpeavy1\\Desktop\\codes.20060109- 112400.txt' into table t.codes fields terminated by @field optionally enclosed by '"' lines terminated by @line ignore 7 lines; TIA, jp [mysql v5.0.16-nt on WinXP]
