Reformat your import file.
or
Add two columns , import, and drop the two columns.
or
Import to a six column temporary file and do an

Save as CSV file.
Parse CSV file
It is actually a little tricky. You need to build the table in mysql yourself, then

it exports csv, it does not quote empty fields (I think), So, you can't use
Text::ParseWords (AFAIK). Here is a regexp which

Yes you can do this by going into Access and op[ening the XLS file from
there then importing it into a table.

I hope this helps

characters show up correctly.

Hello,
I am trying to transfer my Microsoft SQL Server to a MySQL Server running
under Linux.
Until now I have tryied the following methods.
I installed DBtools 1.0.8 in a third machine running Win98 and connected to
the MySQL server (Linux). I tried to import data from the Microsoft SQL
I'm in the process of moving SQL data from one server to another (Linux) -
The tables on the new DBase server are not identical to the old - Is there a
way to import only specified fields data from the old to the new ?
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
