Convert Csv To Dbf MySQL


I'm used to using phpMyAdmin to upload csv files to a MySQL database. GoDaddy, however, has modified (I assume) their installation so that it won't allow this. One can only upload MySQL formatted dbf files. Neither do they allow remote management with software such as Navicat. My question is this...

In OS X is there an application, plug-in, etc that can easily convert an Excel spreadsheet into a properly formatted MySQL file so that I can upload using GoDaddy's mod? I've searched high and low, spent hours trying to find something. I'm sure there's a very simple answer--hopefully one other than having to manually retype the entire spreadsheet.

Convert MySQL To DBF
I would like to know if it possible to convert MySQL to DBF?
I have managed to convert MySQL to DBF by using DBF2CSV to create the CSV and then using mysqlimport to get the data into a MySQL table.

Has anybody used mysql2dbf successfully because I have recently tried running this program on Debian but I get this error message:
"Segmentation fault"
The program creates my DBF file but just doesn't fill it with any data, any ideas on this one at all?

Convert MSAccess Db To PHP And MySQL
I created an MSAccess db a few years ago that I want to use online. My ISP uses PHP and MySQL. I was able to convert the db to MySQL using DBTools Manager Professional and create alot of the forms for individual tables by using PHPMyEdit. I don't know how to re-create some of the forms that use lookup values or queries (let alone if or how you create a lookup table in MySQL or create sub-forms)

I've been reading up on PHP and MySQL but unfortunately, like a lot of us, do not have the time to develop the skills and I was at one point hoping there is a software package or process for doing the complete migration. After my limited research I figure that I should take a different approach. Rather than try to migrate what I have, I should maybe rebuild using the tables and forms I have already converted and get some help from others.

The ultimate question is then: Can I post the process my MSAccess db does in hopes that someone can tell me how to build it in PHP and MySQL?

Convert Filemaker To Mysql
I'm in the process of converting a filemaker db to mysql. What I need help with is in the interface. This is a multi-user filemaker db, one server, many clients. When filemaker boots, you can tell it whether it's the server or client, and if a client, where the data resides. The interface does all the record locking, etc.

I'm now starting on an interface in PHP. I'm assuming allI have to do is a record lock when someone does a mysql query to see, add, or delete data. Is this correct or am I forgetting something?

Convert Mysql Data
I was wondering how to convert my current mysql data into UTF-8?
I don't have access to the latest version of mysql (with my hosting - using version 4.017 - pair networks). I would like to convert the data to UTF-8 so that I can use utf8_encode() to insert all different languages/types of characters from the webpage into the database and use utf8_decode() to pull data from the database and display correctly in all languages.
Is this the correct procedure? Will I still be able to search the database as UTF-8 encoded?

Convert Flatfile To Mysql Using Perl
I have a number of scripts written in perl for a flatfile database.  I already know how to access the MySQL database through DBI.  At least I got that far.  

Example of a sub is below.  User.pl is a private file created for each member.  Members also have a public file for their posts.

What should perl syntax below look like for MySQL?
sub admin_delete {

$user_file = "$as{'user_id'}.pl";
$match = 0;

open(USER_FILE, "$cgi_path/users/$user_file");
flock(USER_FILE,2) if ($flock == 1);
while (<USER_FILE>)
    {
    $user_posts = $_;
    chop $user_posts;
    @user_post_fields = split(/|/,$user_posts);

    if ($user_post_fields[0] == $as{'post_id'} && ($user_post_fields[1] == 2)) {
    $match = 1;
    last;
    }


} # end of while
close(USER_FILE);

&error_admin_post_not_found if ($match == 0);

exit;

} # end of sub admin_delete

Convert DBF To MySQL That Has German Umlaut (ü ö ä, ß)
I wanted to convert a DBF table into a MySQL table (using Navicat). This table has German names and words in it, which contain special characters ö, ä, ü, ß. After converting, these characters appear as unknown, so some strange characters.

Under Navicat there's some kind of encoding when importing table, but I don't know which one. How can I do this, with or without Navicat??

Utility To Convert Between MySQL Versions?
My webhost downgraded from mysql 5 to 4 and I'm seeing errors in the forum I was running. All I can see that would have changed and given me this database error would have been this downgrade. Is there a conversion utility availaible that can change back and forth between MySQL versions? I've looked around for about an hour thru Google and on this forum, but I haven't found anything yet.

I was getting password errors, but we seem to have resolved that issue, and now I'm left with this database connection error.

Thanks for any assistance!

P.S. The errors I get are:

Warning: mysql_error(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/clanloc/public_html/forum-old/db/mysql4.php on line 330

Warning: mysql_errno(): supplied argument is not a valid MySQL-Link resource in /home/clanloc/public_html/forum-old/db/mysql4.php on line 331

Using MySQL To Convert Floats To Fractional Displays?
I'm working on a cooking website and I'm storing the quantities as floats, but I'd like to display them as fractions for American cooks, while still retaining the ability to display as decimals if needed.

Would it be reasonable to see if this could be done using mySQL instead of Coldfusion (my lingua franca)? The possible ranges could be anywhere from .125 (1/8) to 30, 100? While there might be a practical upper limit (what item might someone use 100 of in a recipe (not counting items that typically get used in bulk like chocolate chips or something)? I'd say that a practical upper limit might be 24 (2 dozen) or so, but I'd like to avoid hard-coding limits if possible.

How Do I Convert Data From Mysql 5.0.27 To Mysql 4.025
I am trying to migrate to a professional web hosting company. The problem is that when I backup my database from my computer and import it into their mysql database, I am getting an error that says, no database selected.

Convert Query From MS SQL
We have a database in MS SQL (and ColdFusion) that we're moving to MySQL (w/ PHP). Almost all of the queries have converted perfectly, or we've been able to rewrite them fairly easily. However, there is one query I just don't know how to rewrite because it uses a MS SQL function called 'grouping' that I've never used.

Below is the query. Anyone have a clue what to replace the "grouping()" function with relative to MySQL? How would we change the query to work on MySQL 5?

SQL
SELECT DISTINCT C.ID, C.Name, S.Month, S.Year, S.PageHits, S.Applications, S.crew, S.mgmtFROM( SELECT P.ID,case when ( grouping( C.Month ) = 1 )then 13else C.Monthend AS Month,case when ( grouping( C.Year ) = 1 )then 9999else C.Yearend AS Year,sum( C.PageHits ) AS PageHits,sum( C.Applications ) AS Applications,sum( C.crew ) AS crew,sum( C.mgmt ) AS mgmtFROM RecordCounters CINNER JOIN Records RON ( R.RecordID = C.RecordID )INNER JOIN Coops PON ( R.ID = P.ID )GROUP BY P.ID, C.Year, C.Month WITH ROLLUP ) AS SRIGHT OUTER JOINCoops CON ( S.ID = C.ID ) 
LEFT OUTER JOIN Records RON ( R.ID = C.ID )LEFT OUTER JOIN Regions EON ( E.RegionID = R.RegionID )WHERE E.RegionID = {$_GET['regionid']}

CAST Or CONVERT Big Int
I have a column with datatype BIGINT which is a 64 bit unsigned, numeric.  The actual length of the data is only 13 integers.

I am needing to convert BIGINT to INT(13) or to a string (CHAR) so that I can load it into another datebase.

The BIGINT comes through an ODBC as exponential, which is worthless to me.

SO I want to create a view of the table and which converts or casts the bigint to another datatype like NUM.

I used this query and it seems to work:
select CAST(order_number as CHAR), date_created
from transaction_credits
where date_created > '20070103'

But I would prefer to convert the BigInt to an Integer(13).

Has anyone a solution for this, or a way to configure the mysql ODBC to automatically cast or convert the big int datatype?
