I haven't used load data infile much, mainly because of issues like this question. I want to load a bunch of data for our data warehouse into about 10 different tables. But when I load a parent table, an auto_increment column autogenerates a value that will be a foreign key in a child table. So i cant create the file to load into the child table until after the parent table has been loaded. Then i'll need to get back all the auto increment values just created, and put them into the load file for the child tables. Is this how it has to be, or am i missing something?
