Welcome Note and a Question
Delighted to be on a forum where I can have my queries answered. I am an old Java programmer and the need to program in Java has arisen again. please I need guidance on how to carry out a task.
The task is to write a Java program that will populate an SQL database with the content of a text file. Help please!!!

Re: Welcome Note and a Question
Well, depending on where the text file is, you can use Scanner (Scanner (Java Platform SE 6)) or BufferedReader (BufferedReader (Java Platform SE 6)). Then use the Database classes to communicate and write to the database (Statement, Connection, ResultSet, ect.).

Re: Welcome Note and a Question
Firstly I suggest writing something that will allow you to connect to an SQL database. Then you can worry about populating it..
Is it a mySQL database?
