MYSQL to DB2 Migration

[hawk sury]

Dear All,

I am running the following mysqldump command to backup one of the tables to
DB2.

mysqldump -u root -p --compatible=db2 mydatabase mytable>C:\backup\mytable

It actually works fine and generates a backup file. The problem is that it un-necessarily adds a '\n'prefix to the every first column element of each row.
(Apart from the very first element of the first column)

The output is as following,

Insert into mytable Values (id, europe,100),(\nid2,europe,102),
(\nid3,europe,103) ........... and so on

The \n is added by mysql unnecessarily.
Does anyone know how to stop mysql from putting \n un-necessarily OR
If there is any option in IBM DB2 that can just avoid \n while
loading files.

I would appreciate if you could help.

Thanks for reading,
