Hi again,
Well that didn't work here is the telnet response:
mysql> LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'pet.txt' INTO TABLE pet
-> FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"'
-> LINES TERMINATED BY '\n';
ERROR 1064: parse error near 'LOCAL INFILE 'pet.txt' INTO TABLE pet
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' ENCLOSED BY '"' ' at line 1
mysql>
It appears that LOCAL is causing the parse error but I can't see what I am
doing wrong with it. Any ideas?
