I think you need the ODBC driver for plain text files to do so. It is generally installed in Win32, but I do not know about Linux. As to use MyODBC for that, I do not think it will work.
HTH JFernando ** sql ** -----Original Message----- From: Nikola Pentchev (ESA) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: December 20, 2002 02:11 To: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' Subject: MyODBC with text files Hello, I am writing this e-mail just to ask about the following: I plan to implement some data storage in flat ASCII files. I want to work with SQL in order to automate requests from/to the files. Can I use MyODBC in order to work against flat files? If yes, what do I need to install (can I just install MyODBC and use the C API)? I am working on Solaris 8 Thanks Nikola Pentchev Lead Designer Ericsson South Africa (Pty) Ltd Tel: +27 11 844 2254 Fax: +27 11 844 2279 Mobile: +27 83 222 6063 ECN: 820 2254 --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
