Greets, I'm trying to use the load data infile syntax within a php script. The data is in csv format. I was under the impression that I could reorder the fields during the insert, such as: "load data infile 'currentData.txt' into table(fieldName2, fieldName1) fields terminated by ','"; The stuff in the parentheses causes an error but without the parens, it's inserts OK. I'm sure I've done this in the past, but is was long ago. Anybody have an insight into this?
