Hi,
I have to import hundreds of file to MySQL database. Is it
possible to write a script/storedprocedure in MySQL that does this
without manually doing it for each file.
Say file names are of type 'file0001.txt', 'file0002.txt' etc. Does
MySQL provide any such utility or does anyone know of a free utility?.
If not then what is best language to write such a script/program. Cant
such a script be written in PHP easily?
Thx.

Easily written. Check the glob() function in PHP & de LOAD_FILE() function
in MySQL.

As Rik indicated, this is very easily done in PHP. But if you're
looking how to do it in MySQL, you're in the wrong group - you want
comp.databases. mysql.

Hi, I have researched but have not found a good solution to this
problem.
I am importing large amounts of data (over 50 Meg) into a new mysql db
that I set up. I use
>mysql dbname < importfile.txt
But I keep getting timeouts and errors due to the data being too
large. I know that since if I break the imported data into multiple
chuncks (by importing a few tables at a time) then everything works.

Just chasing a few ideas for a suitable loop for importing multiple
text files. Up until now I have used a Do While Len(strfile) > 0 and
moved each file to a different folder after being imported. However
this time I want to keep them in the same folder and this loop
obviously just goes around in circles. Just wondering what people would
use in this situation?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows.
