Hello, I'm new to MySQL and SQL have some very basic questions about them. I'm relatively competant in programming, so maybe if someone could answer ...
1. Are SQL files, eg. foo.sql, referred to as scripts or programs or what. (In searching for answers to 2. below and don't know if I'm using the right terms) 2. How do you get MySQL to execute a SQL file? I downloaded "fill_help_tables.sql" from the website, and it's comments tell how to load from the command line: mysql -u root -p mysql < file_name but I would like to load a file from the interactive mode, ie. from the mysql> prompt. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
