Thank you but the real problem occurs when you don't know the schema of the table in advance. If data.txt has two columns columns how can I still load it in a temporary table? I'm asking this question because I'd like to add an import csv feature to a web application. I know that you can load data infile into table without specifying the schema of this table but it does not look like you can do load data infile into a temporary table.
