you should maybe try the free dbtools mysql program from http://www.dbtools.com.br this can handle text file imports direct into a mysql db , also it can import or export from excell , access, paradox, foxpro , dbase or odbc data sources, very handy tool if all you ever use it for is the transfer of datatype>datatype..
