db.query("load data infile '/data/winshare/experian/test' into table d_adds fields terminated by '' escaped by '\' lines terminated by '\n'");
Is python problem? not sure.

If I use ESCAPED BY '\\', I got

Using ESCAPED BY '\', then no error and result is fine.
If the data contains "\", then database will automatically takes "\" away and shift 1 byte left.
My data will mass up. That is why I still need "\"
I posted my syntax before, but nobody helped me to figure out.
So this time I did my test again and found out only need one "\" for ESCAPED BY.
I think there's something else wrong with the statement. You do need to use two backslashes to specify an escape character of a single backslash. Can we see the entire LOAD DATA statement exactly as you specified it originally?At 10:43 PM 11/5/2002 -0600, you wrote:At 14:38 -0500 11/5/02, Vivian Wang wrote:The syntac ESCAPED BY of load data infile is wrong in http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/LOAD_DATA.html.
the [ESCAPED by '\\']
should be:
[ESCAPED BY '\']
Why do you say that?
