I know DOS doesn't have a "cat" command, so try :

type create_president.sql > samp_db

Or have I been out of the DOS world too long?

Hello,

I'm using Win98 OS and MySQL 3.23.39-max. Now, I'm trying to load data from
the DOS Prompt into a new database (samp_db):

samp_db < create_president.sql

and it returns ERROR 1064: you have an error in your sql syntax near
'samp_db < create_president.sql' at line 1

Any ideas will be highly appreciated.

Yasen
