Put multiple rows of a text file into a table on mysql?

2 New Member
Hi,

I am a novice at mysql. I have this text file with multiple lines like:

USGS 01411500 1984-01-01 263

I want to place certain rows into a table I already have like the below:

+----------------+-------------+------+-----+------------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+----------------+-------------+------+-----+------------+-------+
| station_id | char(8) | | PRI | | |
| obs_date | date | | PRI | 0000-00-00 | |
| obs_time | time | | PRI | 00:00:00 | |
| create_date | date | | | 0000-00-00 | |
| create_time | time | YES | | NULL | |

I can do them with the insert command one by one but that would take forever!

Does anyone know a way to put them all in at once?

In HTML which is generated I label each row and input field with a name/number combination i.e <input type=text...

I have five tables in my database, there are actually NO common fields between them, not even a KEY or ID or anything like that, except for the "body" of a blob field. and that text is not identical, just a portion of that text is identical. each table has 5 fields, all different except the blob, which is called "message", so normally I use something like: select * from table1 where message like '%apple%';

Does anyone know of a way to execute sql code from a dynamically built text field? Before beginning, let me state that I know this db architecture is built solely for frustration and I hope to make it better soon. Unfortunately, there is never a non-crucial time in which we can do an upgrade, so we are stuck for now. Point 1: There are multiple tables: students, courses, cross-reference

Hello, What is the optimal way to insert multiple rows (around 1000) from a web application into a table? The user enters multiple lines into a text box (up to 10,000). The ASP.NET application breaks that data into a string array. Each line is an item of that array. The user clicks Submit.
