I really missed that.
This works now..
mysqldump database_name drive -u user -ppassword --extended-insert
--single-transaction --skip-add-locks -n -t -w"table_name.column_name
like'A3747' limit 10000" > /tmp/test.sql
Then use the resultant file and do a
$mysql -u user -ppassword database_name < /tmp/test.sql
Many Thanks.
