mysql LOAD command

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to build a script to load tab delimited text files into my database, but I can't get a working query. Here's what I got:

$command = mysql_query ("LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/file.txt' INTO TABLE electronics FIELDS TERMINATED BY '\t' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' (ITEM NUMBER, ITEM NAME, CATEGORY, SUB-CATEGORY, DESCRIPTION, WEIGHT, WHOLESALE PRICE, RETAIL PRICE, SHIPPING, HANDLING, CARRIER NAME, QUANTITY IN STOCK, IMAGE SMALL, IMAGE MEDIUM, IMAGE LARGE, DETAIL URL)");

if ($command) {

echo "<br>good";

} else {

echo "<br>bad";

}

It returns bad every time. Any suggestions? Thanks.
