I'm having a bit of a problem trying to get MySQL version 4.0.1-alpha-max-nt
binary version

to accept The Command - Line Tool to run a script to create a table.

My operating system is Windows 2000 Professional. I can connect with
MyODBC-3.51.02.exe without any problem and run successful queries.

I am using the model example from chapter 4.8.2 The Command-line Tool.

I am trying to create a table in the test database example in MySQL

I am logged in correctly and using the test database that is created when
MySQL is installed as best as I can tell by reviewing the command line mysql
status.

I am issuing the command line statement at the mysql prompt:  mysql test  <
create.sql;

I get the following mysql error:  ERROR 1064 You have an error in your SQL
near 'mysql test < create1.sql' at line 1

Basically, I have a script named create1.sql with the following syntax:

CREATE TABLE Names (

NameID int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment,

FirstName varchar(30) NOT NULL default '',

LastName varchar(30) NOT NULL default '',

PRIMARY KEY (NameID),

KEY idx_Names_LastFirst (LastName,FirstName)

) TYPE=MyISAM;



INSERT INTO Names VALUES (1,'Morton','Salter');

INSERT INTO Names VALUES (2,'Jimi','Filmore');

INSERT INTO Names VALUES (3,'Eustace','Shoe');

INSERT INTO Names VALUES (4,'Archy','Roche');

INSERT INTO Names VALUES (5,'Catherine','LaGrande');



Anyone got any suggestions?



Thanks In Advance
