pb with revdb_execute

[Jan Schenkel]

Hi Sylvain,

If you're using MySQL and trying to read in a slew of
data coming from a file, then you might want to have a
look at its LOAD DATA command or the mysqlimport
utility (which is essentially just a convenient
front-end for the LOAD DATA command).

The LOAD DATA syntax is:
LOAD DATA [LOCAL] INFILE filename INTO TABLE tablename
[FIELDS [TERMINATED BY 'char'] [ENCLOSED BY 'char']]
[LINES TERMINATED BY 'char'] [IGNORE n LINES]
[(column1, column2, ...)]

Example:
LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'c:/temp/cust.txt' INTO TABLE
customer FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' (title, fname,
lname, addressline, town, zipcode, phone)

Hope this helped,

Jan Schenkel.
