mySQL question

[Ton Kuypers]

Hi,

I've seem to have a small problem using mySQL from within Revolution...

I'm trying to import a lot of data into mySQL tables.

I'm reading an export file and build a query using a repeat loop,  
which basically creates a command like:
	insert into Clients  
(ID,Name,FirstName,LastName,Email,Country,EmailCC,Remarks) values  
('480','S-P Africa','Maamoun','Allam','','1','','');"
	insert into Clients  
(ID,Name,FirstName,LastName,Email,Country,EmailCC,Remarks) values  
('481','S-P Australia','Doug','Way','','2','','');
	insert into Clients  
(ID,Name,FirstName,LastName,Email,Country,EmailCC,Remarks) values  
('482','S-P  
Australia','Bethany','South','ethany_south at merck.com','2','','');
	insert into Clients  
(ID,Name,FirstName,LastName,Email,Country,EmailCC,Remarks) values  
('483','S-P Austria','Peter','Guenczler','','3','','');
	insert into Clients  
(ID,Name,FirstName,LastName,Email,Country,EmailCC,Remarks) values  
('484','S-P Austria','Gertraud','Neuberger','','3','','');
	etc.
This can result is a command that inserts more then 10.000 records.

When I send each line separately, the records get inserted into the  
database, but when I try to send them all together, it takes forever...

I'm using the revExecuteSQL command.

Is there a better way to import a bunch of data into mySQL?

When I copy the query and execute it from CocoaMySQL, it works fine.

Anyone any suggestions?
