HELP!! database question for my Band shop!

[jamesey]

Hi,

 

I really hope someone can help me! I've got a osCommerce store set-up and as I'm selling band clothing I'm trying to install an addon so I can keep stock of individual sizes, which an unmodified osCommerce store cannot do for some reason!!!

 

Anyway, to install the addon i nmeed to open up PhpMyAdmin, select the database, click on the SQL tab.... i can do that all fine......

 

then it says enter the location of the sql file (which i had downloaded onto my harddrive) and click go. This is where im having errors coming up.

 

I'm typing in this:

 

C:\qtpro\new_install.sql

 

new_install.sql is the file i need to load/run onto the database. it is saved on my C drive in a folder called "qtpro"... but what i tpyed above in phpmyadmin doesnt work.

 

Is there anything else i need to do to make this work? At the moment im getting this error:

 

Error
There seems to be an error in your SQL query. The MySQL server error output below, if there is any, may also help you in diagnosing the problem

ERROR: Unknown Punctuation String @ 2
STR: :\
SQL: c:\qtpro\new_install.sql


SQL query: 

c:\qtpro\new_install.sql 

MySQL said:

Open up the sql file in notepad, then copy and paste the text into the run sql box.
