I have figured out how to import a tab delimited text file from the webserver directory into the MySQL database with the following:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/home/www/textfile.txt' INTO TABLE tablename

But am so far unable to export from a MySQL table into a text file on the web server. Last tried the following:

SELECT * FROM tablename INTO LOCAL OUTFILE '/home/www/exporttext.txt'

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Bob,

This command worked for me:

select * into outfile '/home/www/myfile.txt' from <mytable>;

This will save it on the server, so maybe you can ftp it out to your local computer?

I've had troubles using the LOCAL keyword.


Regards
