Imorting data from a csv file problems

I have been trying to import a large amount of data into my database
using the following format

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'e:\\sydnet2\\_info\\curdocs.csv' INTO TABLE
pnp_docs_current FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' LINES
TERMINATED BY '\n';

This, when run, creates an error, stating that this command is not
allowed with this version of MySQL. Isn't the features from previous
versions available in the newer versions? Everything I see says this
can be done with one of the later 3. versions. I am running 4.0.17.
This seems weird that i can not execute a command like the one above.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
