RE: [PHP-DB] Executing Queries from a File Using PHP From: Jeffrey_N_Dyke <email protected>

all you have to do is put one query per line in the file, it may be hard to
read, but who cares.

and then it is as simple as.

$contents = file("sql.txt"); //file function reads file into array
while (list ($qry)) = each($contents)) {
    mysql_query($qry);
}

Just a thought....

Thanks. Since it would take me forever to write, and I don't know thing
well
enough to make sure I have all the possibilities covered, I was hoping
there
was some source code somewhere I can use.

There are no built-in functions to do so. You need to read in the file
yourself, parse it appropriately then send the queries to mysql.
