There is a mysql utility that does this: mysqldump -p mypassword -T mytargetdirectory mydatabasename [mytablenames] (The "-T" tells it to dump the data in tab-limited format. Otherwise it generates a series of insert statements.) See: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/mysqldump.html One pointer: the mysql daemon does the writing so the mysql user must have write permission on the target directory. Hope this helps.
