I have! lol... From excel, from perl flat files, et cetera. PhpMyAdmin really does a fine job of it. If you're not working from a dumped database (with the tables intact), you will need to recreate the tables, setting them properly, THEN import the data.</p> <p>What sort of data do you have?</p> Sat, 17 May 2003 17:47:07 +0000 Suzanne comment 1131627 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/serverside-scripting/mysql-question#comment-1131626 <p>I've never imported a database that was not originally dumped from mysql.</p> Sat, 17 May 2003 17:31:00 +0000 Mark Hensler comment 1131626 at https://www.webmaster-forums.net https://www.webmaster-forums.net/serverside-scripting/mysql-question#comment-1131618 <p>If you're using PhpMyAdmin, you can choose on the same screen as the create a table, to import a database from a text file.
