HI,
I have one file which is comma sepatred
the values are

Arfat,12,India,200.00,Mumbai,Chougulay

The above fields are Name,Age,Country,Salary,City,Surname

Now i have a table with follwing field
Name,Surname,City,Country

i.e while loading i dont want to load Salary and Age

Is there a way to Do it?
Without Changing the Table Structure.

Thanx in Advance

1. load all the rows to a dummy table with all the columns
2. now insert only the wanted columns into your target table from the dummy table.
or
use a filler

----------------------------------------------------------------------

LOAD DATA INFILE * 
INTO TABLE MyTable 
FIELDS TERMINATED BY "," 
( 
c1	INTEGER, 
c2 	FILLER CHAR, 
c3      CHAR ) 
BEGINDATA 
1,willbeskipped_1,a
2,willbeskipped_2,b
3,willbeskipped_3,c
