Cron to Auto Insert SQL to DB

Hi People..
This is driving me mad.

I have approx 100 files received daily, normally in 5 min intervals in the format of..

******-logfile.sql

These are auto uploaded to a folder on server called filelist

The format of each file is as follows.

DELETE FROM `webuserdata` WHERE `NickName` = "OkiesPlace";
Insert into webuserdata (NickName, FileStatus, Correspondent, Period, FileName, Series, Files) values ('OkiesPlace','Sent','Enforcer','May 2008','CB30001-05 - Spears Britney - From The Bottom Of My Broken Heart.zip','CB','1');

These could each have between 1 and 3000 Insert Lines.

Can someone please tell me how, when the file is received to folder filelist
these files should be auto inserted to the database.

I assume somewhere I have to make a file that includes the connection codes to DB.

But what that is and where I put is a total loss.

Thanks for any help

Regards
Keith

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 See also gammu-smsdrc AUTHOR
