Import From Excel To MySQL
I have multiple spreadsheets in Excel format and in .csv format too,
that I would like to possibly import to a mysql database. All of the
excel and csv files have is one huge colum and they are only 1 cell on

Basically I need a way to import them from the Excel sheet to the
database so at that point I can manipulate the data and use a php script
of some sort to run a whois after extracting the domain name, and then
return the results to the database and have it attached to the domain
name.

Import Excel
I have a new project and am trying to use MySQL to solve my needs. I need to import log files that I receive from the mediation system. These come in text format with the pipe ("|") as the separator. I can either first import these into Excel or import them directly into the databse.

The problem is I am not sure how to import the data from either source.

Best Software For Excel Import?
I've got my MySQL database setup and I need to be able to import XLS files into it.

I don't require very much advanced functionality, basically all I need to be able to do to is import .xls and .xlsx files. I will need to be able to specify the cells to be inserted into a specific field of a specific table. Different cells from within the same excel sheet will be going to different tables within my db.

If 3rd part software the best approach here? If so what software do you recommend? I would like something as light weight as possible with only the minimum required functionality.

Or is it better (possible?) to code my own implementation in php? If so are there any tutorials that will help me get started?

Import Non Normalized Excel Data
So I've got all of my data in csv. Should I import into MySQL directly and then attempt to normalize, or should I try to normalize first, creating individual tables and then import my data.

One current problem I am having with the latter is I've got one column with 10k rows. Of those 10k there are 3k unique values. Manually completing find and replace is going to be a chore (3k is less, but still a bit more than I care to do). Is there something built into MySQL that'll help speed things up a bit?

MySQL Import Text File Too Big?
Our production database in an exported textfil runs about 60 MB.
Compressed that's about 9 MB.

I'm trying to import the export into another machine running FC3 and
mySQL 11.18, and it appears as though the file may be too big!
When I try to do it via command line:

mysql -u root --host=localhost printing < ./printing.txt

It eventually errors out with a "syntax error on line X" and only about
half the tables get imported, and MyPHPAdmin GUI interface says it has
a 2MB file limit on importing.

This concerns me. If something were to happen to our production
database, how am I going to restore it?

I tried to do a search on mysql.com, but that's a less than helpful
site for support. A newsgroup search on the topic didn't come up with
much, so maybe I'm just bad at using keywords.

Csv File(s) Exists Import Into MySQL
I am hoping to write a solution that imports any csv files that exist in a given directory into mySQL. I know how to write a SQL command to import a single file, but am wondering the best method to automate importing whenever a file shows up in a given directory (and even better move them to another directory post-import).

Is there something like a trigger inside of mySQL that can help me do this? I can run a cron or the like to check for files, parse them, run the mySQL commands, move them, etc. but I am hoping for a much cleaner internal answer. Since it will eventually be hosted I may not have the capability to run scripts.

Import Tables From Another Non-Joomla Mysql File
Can someone tell me how I can import tables from another non-Joomla mysql file into Joomla? Basically it is just from one mySQL database into another. I use phpMyAdmin to import and export the entire file but I don't know how to do queries.

What I am trying to do is import all the articles I have built up using ccTiddlyWiki into Joomla. The only table names of relevance from the source file are:

id - title- body

IN other words, just the bare essentials.

The target files has a table called jos_content with columns:
id - title - title_alias - introtext - fulltext in that order and others but are not important.

I think it is fairly simple but I am not trained enough. I have 200 items so it would save an enormous amount of time!

It seems easy but I don't know enough about queries to do it well. I'm hoping that I can import the articles and then just go through the list in Joomla adding subtitles and so on to conform to Joomla database essentials.

There is another column called tags which I would be happy to have as well and I'm not bothered about start dates or anything else.

Also, does the file have to be in the databse directory or can it be anywhere on the machine??

Import .sql File
I am working with mysql for the first time. I figured I would try to learn a little about it by creating a Cacti SNMP monitoring server. I have created a database in mysql called cacti. The root password is also cacti. I have been fighting with importing the included cacti.sql file for days. I have tried multiple syntaxes and get the same error everytime. Here is what I have done:

mysql> mysql -u root -p cacti cacti < c:inetpubwwwrootcacticacti.sql;

Show warnings disabled.
ERROR 1064 (42000): You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that

I am sure this is a stupid mistake because everything I read makes it sound like importing .sql files is easy.
