Let say I have a file with 20 lines, the first 3 lines are useless instruction for using the table, the 4th line is the header, the 5th to 17th lines are tab-delimited data, and the 18th to 20th lines are some useless remarks. And I want to import the table from the 4th line to the 17th line. How can I do it in MySQL? Something to work with “SKIP”?
Thanks!
You have the option to ignore the first x lines. The rest you have to parse and remove by other logic, maybe a store procedure.
