[sqlite] Re Populating a database from a file

2010-08-04 Thread john knops
Thanks for the prompt reply.
What form should the file take. I've tried enclosing the data for each 
column in double quotes and separating them with either a comma, tab or 
space but I get an error "expected 5 columns but only found 1. Using | I 
get "datatype mismatch"
Also when I use .dump does it destroy the table or just copies it t a 
text file?

[sqlite] Populating a database from a file

2010-08-04 Thread john knops
If I'm using MySQL I can populate a database with "Load data infile 
'/tmp/data.txt' into table table_1"
Is there a similar way of loading data into a sqlite3 database?

Thanks
