I need to load data from a log file.  The file is a space seperated file.  I can 
already ignore the first 7 lines (that are commnet lines), but what I can not seem to 
do is:
1. get load data to use the space seperated format.
2. only load certain columns.  

I tried: mysql> LOAD DATA INFILE 'persondata.txt'
    ->           INTO TABLE persondata (col1,col2,...);

But it gives me an error about field lists.  I can not find anything about defining 
field lists in the manual.

Thanks for your time
David
