When the mysqldump ran against all databases, the USE <db-name> command should have appeared above each section of that databases dump. Try using Perl or the head or tail Unix command to hunt down the Database you are dumping. Read all lines until the next USE <db-name> command.
Example: If you mysqldumped databases DB1, DB2 (copyright IBM), DB3, DB4, and DB5 and you want ot restore just DB3, locate the string "USE DB3" (say its line 200000) and "USE DB4" (say its line 250000). Copy lines 200000 to 250000 to another SQL script. Then run that new script. ----- Original Message ----- From: "waldo tumanut" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Sent: Tuesday, July 10, 2007 9:34:28 AM (GMT-0500) America/New_York Subject: How to restore 1 database from mysqldump of all databases Question: How do I restore 1 database from amysqldump of all databases?
