mysqldump syntax - dumping only specific tables starting with a certain character. (e.g. z*)
Is there a way to dump only specific tables starting with a certain character? For example, I only want to dump tables starting with the character 'z'. The following doesn't work. mysqldump -u(user) -p (db-name) z* (filename) Do I have to use regular expression here?

I tried it, then it gives the following error message mysqldump: Can't get CREATE TABLE for table 'ls z*' (Table '(db-name).ls z*' doesn't exist) What does 'ls' mean?

Thanks Uwe, I used ` now. It says ls: z*: no such file or directory exists then, when I enter the password it dumps all the tables. (instead of tables starting with 'z') Yes, I'm a newbie. (I didn't know to use ` instead of '...) But please help me.

Re: mysqldump syntax - dumping only specific tables starting with a certain character. (e.g. z*)
actually, that was stupid of me - you need a list of tables not files. I think the only to do this, and the way we do it, is to run some command like: mysql -eshow tables in db-name like 'z%' tabnames Note the use of double-quotes and single-quotes. then use a loop to read the file tabnames and build a string to tack on the mysqldump command, or issue multiple mysqldump commands. A shell interpreter like bash or a program like perl or php can do this easily. You might try putting the above command in back-tics (`) and then inserting directly into the mysqldump command. 2009/4/19 Jim Lyons jlyons4...@gmail.com try something like: mysqldump -u(user) -p (db-name) `ls z*` (filename) 2009/4/19 ChoiSaehoon saeho...@hotmail.com Is there a way to dump only specific tables starting with a certain character?
