How do I export a CSV from Access? - mysql

I am trying to import an access database to mysql. I have created a mysql database, but do not want to use all of the colums in the access database. Is there a way to export only certain colums from the access database to csv?

1) Make a query on the table with only the columns you want, and save it.
2) Select the query, and then got to File->Export (Select Save As "text *.txt, *cvs, etc.") and follow the prompts

Applying filter before exporting to Excel from MySQL

I want to export to Excel from MySQL DB. How can I filter the data before I export it to excel?
Before exporting I need to give some inputs to filter the data from DB that should be exported. How can I accomplish that?
In phpMyAdmin, open your table (assuming you just want data from this table) and use Search to indicate on what you want to filter. When you have the desired results on-screen, use the "Query results operations" panel to click on Export, then choose the CSV for MS Excel format.

Import mdb data into another mdb

I have two mdb files with equal structure (ca. 30 tables) but different data. I want to put the data together. Is there a user wizard to achive it in MS Access or do I have to do it manualy using INSERT for each table?
Thanks in advance.
You can attach (not import) tables from database A into database B. Then, for each table you can build a query to append data from A.tableX to B.tableX

export tables of mysql database for insertion into a different database

I have a wordpress instance running on my localhost. In order to move this to another server, I'd like to export the contents of this database to an sql file. However, I don't have the permission to create new databases, I have an existing database in which I'd like to insert the tables and all the rows inside them. Is there a way to tell phpmyadmin to export the data in such a way that everything will be inserted into this new database? Or would it be better to just do a find/replace inside the sql file?
In fact, if you select the database in phpmyadmin, it shows all the tables contained. If you choose to export at that stage, it will export by default (actually depends on its version) all the tables structure and data without database creation. Additionally, it does give you the option of exporting only the data.

How to generate SQL queries

I am using phpMyAdmin to create database tables and fields. I have 100's of tables in a single database. Now I need to make the same on few more servers.
I feel it's too hard to write SQL queries to create that database. Is there any reverse process to generate an SQL query file from phpMyAdmin or anyother tool? I want to create a database in a GUI, and I need the SQL query for my database. Is there any tool to generate it automatically?
If I understood you correctly, you want to export a database (with many tables) using phpMyAdmin, and then import it and use it on another server.
Yes. You can do that.
Select the database on the left-hand side in phpMyAdmin and then:
Export -> Select All Tables -> Adjust Options -> Go.
You are going to get <youdatabasename>.sql file, with all the table definitions inside. Then you can import it in another phpMyAdmin or other database handler.
You can use mysqldump to do this. Then --nodata switch should do what you want.
