I need to create a Mysql daybase from within cpanel.. I think I can handle that part...I even see where I go into each database after it is created ..the placewhere you start adding fields...but thats about as far as I am going to get without some serious study and trial and error.

The scond part of my problem is the information I want to populate the fields is in this text format like this

xxxx xxxx xxxxx xxxx xxxxx xxxx ...

I am building a website on all the countries xxxxxxxx. first of all is there any way to take a huge list in txt format without already being in fields and importing that into a database..or do I need to create the fields in the database and populate the fields ONE at a time ?

I have a huge text file of all the xxxxxx..but without any fields..can it be done is it relatively straight forward ?


and my last question is .after the database is setup...I will be making "pages"for each xxxxx ..so after I build a xxxxx web page I need to go into the admin of the databse and create a hyperlink to the webpage using some text in one ofthe fields ..is that something that is pretty straight forward?

You need what exactly? You want to know how to create tables? How to structure a db? You need help adding fields?

Depending on the way your file is structured you will have to manualy add the data into the db or hopefuly you will be able to use a script to do this for you by taking the file data and inputing them into the db...
