I really, really appreciate you guys taking time from your respective Sundays to try and enlighten me. But I'm still getting nowhere fast.
I've gotten it to this:
I open a new shell and type:
/usr/local/bin/mysql --local-infile -u root -p [the full pathname up to]/Temp.sql
at which point it informs me "incorrect database name". Well, yes, the script is to create a nonexistent database and then a table called "Temp" in that database.
I'm now officially lost. 'use' would only apply to an existing database.
By the way, I've also tried:
/usr/local/bin/mysql -u root -p [the full pathname up to]/Temp.sql
to no avail.
Soooo frustrating ...
