Re: Querying from a file

Y can read all the file and add

$sql = ... where i.name = m.code, m.code like (" .'$ref,'

$sql .= '$ref,',

and at the end replace the last ',' with ')'

Unless you have so many lines in that input file that your sql-code exceeds the maximum length your database engine accepts. And rather than a `LIKE`, I'd use the `IN` function.
