Has anyone written a perl script to get records from another database and write it to a file on mysql's LOAD DATA INFILE format? I just need some pointers in perl so a LOAD DATA INFILE will be read correctly.
For example, a perl script: Select * from emp from a Progress database Will write to a text file called emp.txt in the LOAD DATA INFILE format, Then, I can to a direct LOAD DATA INFILE into my mysql database. I tried doing direct select/inserts in perl but found dumping to a text file and doing a LOAD DATA to be MUCH faster.
