I asked this same question on June 22, and got the following answer: What about reading the data into the table and storing the 'amount' in varchar for now. Then you can run an update query in which you replace the decimal comma with a decimal point and store that in the float field (emptying the varchar in the process). UPDATE `table` SET `amount`= REPLACE( `v_amount`, ',' , '.'), `v_amount` = NULL WHERE `v_amount` IS NOT NULL; Groetjes, Hans. jdh punt beekhuizen bij duinheks punt xs4all punt nl --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5/050823 * Origin: The Wizard is using MBSE/Linux (2:280/1018) -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
