Problem with data import from text file

When I try to import a text file with new data for an existing
table I get the error "1148 - the used command is not allowed
with this MySQL version."

I have tried with both PHPMyAdmin2.3 and with MySQLFront 2.5.
Both these GUI programmes have an "import from text file" command
which I have used successfully several times to add entries to
this table before - running just this MySQL version. I have
structured the data in the text file in just the same format as
previously.

Both these programmes are connecting to the database successfully
now and will display the contents of the existing table data and
strcutre of the database etc (despite an earlier connection
problem which seems to have been solved spontaneously).

But both now deliver exactly this error message (and therefore I
assume it is MySQL and not the interface programmes which is
doing it). I cannot see that I am doing anything different.

I have MySQL 4.0.12 on Windows ME PC with a local Apache server
and PHP.

Any ideas please?

Regards
Adrian Greeman

PS I sent a long message about this and a connection problem
yesterday which was not succint enough. Apologies
