Hi all, How to use MySQL LOAD DATA command to load comma separated text data but one of the field can contains comma character as part of of the string context.? In other word, I want LOAD DATA insert string with comma characters inside it but without adding slash character ('\')to distinguish it as a field separator. I use this command, LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE "DATA.TXT" REPLACE INTO TABLE tbl FIELDS TERMINATED BY "|" IGNORE 1 LINES but when I look at the table tbl, everything is fine except in the field that contain comma character, comma charater is written as '\,' rather than just ','. What option of LOAD DATA should I use? Jamal
