Hi Paul,
assuming that the first three occurances of blanks can be regarded as
field separators you can do:
prompt> cat file.txt | sed \
-e "s/'/'/g" \
-e "s/ */','/" \
-e "s/ */','/" \
-e "s/ */','/" \
-e "s/^/INSERT INTO categories VALUES('/" \
-e "s/$/');/" | mys
I will try that.
Thanks.

How is the data delimited? You may be able to use the LOAD DATA INFILE
command.

Hi,
I am trying to add this info into a table and I know there is a way to do it without
using the insert command on every line of data.
201 200 NJ Jersey City
INSERT INTO categories VALUES ('201', '200', 'NJ', 'Jersey City');
there are way too many lines to do by manual inserts.
Any com
