      I am trying to import a CSV that is full of file path names, e.g. docmydocumentsfile. When I import this structure, the “” are removed. Why is this happening? I have tried several different variations in the import table dialog box, but have not had success. Can anyone help?

      Also, is there a way to designated the first row as a header row and not import it?

      Thanks,

      Bob

      the is considered an escape character, unless you change it. 'd' simply become 'd'. This is how MySQL Server treats the the escape character. Probably you don't need to use escape characters at all. Or you must use another character.

      There is a setting in the dialogue to skip 'n' number of lines.

      Thanks. I had tried to go without the escape character, but it kept skipping the “” but when I changed it something irrelevent such as “+” it worked as it should.

      Thanks for the tip about skipping a number of lines.

      It looks like ” … escaped by ''” is default with a load infile staement. Maybe it could vary with different MySQL version.
