edoplaza Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 Hello everybody, I use MySQL and PHP. This is the situation: I have a client with a list of almost 300 email adresses and wants to put that information in a web page I'm creating for her. So, I need to populate a database with the following fields: first name, last name and email adress. What would be the best option for this? I guess an Excel file would be a good choice, but how do I proceed? Does someone have an idea? Cheers Eduardo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelfimage Posted January 8, 2009 Report Share Posted January 8, 2009 You can use excel for this but save as a either a comma separated or tab separated text file (.txt). If the list she has is already tab separated then you might be able to import using that. might try using a space separated list too because I think you can specify the delimiter using phpmyadmin to import it.

edoplaza Posted January 10, 2009 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2009 Sorry, I didn't mean that. The client wants to put those mails in a DB associated to her web page. She just wants to send new info about products or news to a mail list of her clients. Those mails will never appear in any visible place of her site.
