batch insert from external file


shai1

Recommended Posts

A while back I thought I read of a way to insert records from an external file without having to "loop" through them. I've been looking for how to do this and of course now I can't find it again. If anyone could show me an example of how to do this I would really appreciate it.

Thanks,
Dave

I found what I was looking for...

[b]Load data infile[/b]. I thought I would post it for others to learn from. When searching I was looking for [b]insert from file[/b] and that is why I couldn't find any information on it. I have not tried it yet, but I've read that it is very fast.

Thanks,
Dave
