Thanks for the answer - but I am already the root user and have
phpMyAdmin using the root also (because this is just a single computer
for testing work and there are not any bit security issues).

Hello Adrian.

I'm not very experienced with MySQL, but I believe that you need special
privileges to
load data from a file.

Normally, other than the root user will not have this kind of privilege.
Without it you will
probably have to ask for someone with  do it for you, or give you
permissions to do it. If
you have access to the root account, then try it from there!

I just tried to load edited data from a text file separated by |

I was using PhpMyAdmin version 2.5.6 and MySQL 4.0.18 running on Windows
XP  - I thought it was all set up right and configured properly

- and earlier was able to populate the table with some initial data. Now
I was trying to add more from a simple text file using the
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'C:\\WINDOWS\\TEMP\\php3E.tmp' INTO TABLE
`headlines` FIELDS TERMINATED BY '|' ENCLOSED BY '"' ESCAPED BY '\\'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\r\n'

instruction which phpMyAdmin creates.

It refused to do it and returned the error message:


#1148 - The used command is not allowed with this MySQL version

I feel there must be a simple explanation

May I ask if anyone can help???

PS I am only on digest so please be patient if it takes a while for
futher dialogue on this
