如何将Excel工作表中的数据添加/添加到表中？

Question

The Excel sheet is huge; contains around 40,000 rows. Both the table and the excel sheet have an equal number of columns. I am using Ubuntu Linux, Libre Office and MySQL workbench. All I could find when I searched on the web was to import using MySQL Server Studio(I don't think it is available for Ubuntu), and queries containing "Microsoft.Jet-OPENROWSET" query. I am new to performing tasks other than the basic operations in excel/SQL.

And also, what format should the excel be in? Should it contain the column names explicitly?

Is there a simple way to perform this operation?

Thank You in Advance.

You can use the following:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/path/to/your/file'  INTO TABLE tablename
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' lines terminated by '\n';
