geisha666 Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 hi! i have a basic grip of mysql, and would like to know if and how it is possible to convert a database into a sql file without re-entering all the information. i own a bookstore, and enter all my inventory into a program called homebase. this can be exported into comma or tab delimited files. any help or direction to a site that would give me information/tutorials would be greatly appreciated. thanks!! -- Kristina Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/942-converting-databases-to-sql/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
