Re: source statement depricated - what replaced it?

[Jeff Buchanan]

The load_departments.dump file is in the same directory as this "main" .sql file. I'm running it via MySql Workbench editor.

The source command follows data structure definitions:
CREATE TABLE departments (
dept_no CHAR(4) NOT NULL,
dept_name VARCHAR(40) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (dept_no),
UNIQUE KEY (dept_name)
);

flush /*!50503 binary */ logs;

SELECT 'LOADING departments' as 'INFO';
source 'load_departments.dump';

Message:
'source' is not valid at this position, expecting: EOF, BEGIN, CACHE, CHECKSUM, COMMIT ...
