Receiving file from remote source?

6 New Member
The deign goes like this..

I have a Mysql database on a linux system. It will receive a file from a remote location through GPRS and that file is to be processed and will then be loaded in the database.
So, I want to know how to achieve this?
How can we forward the file received to the database?
How can Mysql can get to process this data?
Do we have any support for doing this from Mysql?
what to read in this context?

As far as I know, MySQL cannot parse a text file. You will need to run a script using another language (for example PHP) which will convert the text file into array(s) which it can then add to MySQL. What format is the file you're receiving? PHP has some good XML parsing ability, but otherwise you will need to read up on PHP opening and reading files.
