If you are using wamp you can try this. Just type use your_Database_name first.

1. Click your wamp server icon then look for MYSQL > MSQL Console then run it.

2. If you dont have password, just hit enter and type :

   mysql> use database_name;
   mysql> source location_of_your_file;
   

   If you have password, you will promt to enter a password. Enter you password first then type:

   mysql> use database_name;
   mysql> source location_of_your_file;
   

location_of_your_file should look like C:\mydb.sql

so the commend is mysql>source C:\mydb.sql;

This kind of importing sql dump is very helpful for BIG SQL FILE.

I copied my file mydb.sq to directory C: .It should be capital C: in order to run

and that's it.
