In that case they are probably fixed width files. If they are not fixed
with and are in fact delimited by tab or comma, you can use LOAD DATA to
bring them in.
See http://www.mysql.com/doc/en/LOAD_DATA.html
And if they are fixed width, you can write a script in something like
Perl to unpack
Are .fil files associated or view able with sql at all. Someone
mentioned to me that they might be. My companys database uses .fil
files and I want to be able to link to the information in them for web
based inventory display.
Or --- Am I way off base here?
Make it a great day!
