thanks but..
Thanks for your response, but I wanted to know how to read the .csv file, basically print it to the screen, verify the column orders and data and then do an import at some other time.
This LOAD function is only for importing into the database. I need something similar to Windows where a text/csv ODBC driver has been installed and I use it as my DSN to run my SQL query.
Now a bit of promotion to pass along:
As I become more familiar with PHP and MySQL I am finding the shortcomings in each. iHTML is a much more intuitive and more powerful scripting language. We have it installed on our UNIX server and it is something everyone should consider as an alternative.
The same goes w/ MySQL, which is a junior version of Sybase (as is Microsoft's SQL as well). I'm very concerned what will happen when our database gets very big. Will this sql be as reliable as Sybase? I hope so!
Sure PHP and MySQl are free, but you get what you pay for.

GAMMU-SMSD-ODBC(7) Gammu GAMMU-SMSD-ODBC(7)
NAME
gammu-smsd-odbc - gammu-smsd(1) backend using ODBC abstraction layer to use any supported database as a message storage
DESCRIPTION
New in version 1.29.92.
ODBC backend stores all data in any database supported by ODBC, which parameters are defined by configuration (see gammu-smsdrc for
description of configuration options).
For tables description see gammu-smsd-tables.
This backend is based on gammu-smsd-sql.
SUPPORTED DRIVERS
On Microsoft Windows, Gammu uses native ODBC, on other platforms, unixODBC can be used.
LIMITATIONS
Due to limits of the ODBC interface, you might have to tweak SQL queries to work in used SQL server, see SQL Queries for more details.
Partially this can be configured using SQL.
CONFIGURATION
Before running gammu-smsd you need to create necessary tables in the database. You can use examples given in database specific backends
parts of this manual to do that.
You specify data source name (DSN) as Host in gammu-smsdrc. The data source is configured depending on your platform.
On Microsoft Windows, you can find instructions on Microsoft website: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/305599
For unixODBC this is documented in the user manual: http://www.unixodbc.org/doc/UserManual/
EXAMPLE
Example configuration:
[smsd]
service = sql
driver = odbc
host = dsn_of_your_database
sql = sql_variant_to_use
user = username
password = password
