I have an SQL table in text format with the usual structure that starts CREATE TABLE 'name' (list of fields and formats), followed by the data. Is there an easy way to get this into Excel without going through an actual SQL engine?
I know I can just use the data import features in Excel, specify the delimiters, and have the table data imported. That gives me a few orphan rows with the field names, but for small tables that is OK since I can just cut and paste the field names as necessary, but for tables with LOTS of fields it is no so handy.
Am I better off just installing WAMP or something like that, using MySQL, and then dumping it off to a CSV format? I didn't see anything in Excel 2013 or Access 2013 that would read the file directly.
