Import Data from CSV to MYSQL (1 reply)

Hi All

I have very simple requirement but bit new to mysql so dont know much about it.

In my table 'Test_Table', I have 20 columns which will store client's product details.


I will ask Clients to provide data for 15 fields only as rest 5 are derived values. Moreover, do not want to expose last 5 columns to client as it wont make sense to them. Clients will give me these data in XLS (CSV) - NO SQL / NO XML.

As data can be in thousands row, I want to have a staging table. So 15 columns will be imported into Staging table and from Staging table, I will move to actual table with normal query or procedure.

I am not sure provision of that in MySQL. so can someone highlight available options to do so?

Many thanks in advance

Regards
