How about
LOAD DATA INFILE 'filename.txt'
INTO TABLE Table
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' comma delimited for tabs use '\t'
LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' *nix line terminator, for Dos/Win use
'\r\n'
IGNORE 1 LINES use if the first line of the file has col.

There are a few ways to split up text based on a delimiter. I recommend you
look at split and explode on the PHP.net site and see what seems to be best
for your situation.
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
