I'm using 3.23.49 on Windoze 98. I'm trying to execute this: mysqlc> load data local infile "c:/temp/e-headhunters.txt" -> into table headhunters -> lines terminated by '\r\n' -> (email);
Table headhunters contains several fields, including 'email varchar(40)'. The input file is text, with lines terminated by x'0d0a', confirmed with a hex editor. It contains simple strings: ilsglobe.com baxley.com ComputerJobs.com coloradojobs.com dice.com MySQL inputs one record into the table, consisting of the first two lines above, concatenated with a newline, into the email field. I.e., the sole resulting record consists of one string, "ilsglobe.com<nl>baxley.com" in the email field. (It's possible that the embedded newline is <cr><nl>.) There are (untrappable) warnings issued for the rest. I've tried every combination of LINES TERMINATED BY, FIELDS TERMINATED BY, and FIELDS ENCLOSED BY that I can think of, and nothing works. I'm new at this so I'm probably doing something wrong. Any help, please. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
