I am changing our file uploading system from a server location to a MySQL database. The files are all for employee only use, so it's not like a massive hosting site or anything. Still I have alot of files that need moved once. I don't want to go through the trouble of creating a massive upload form just for a one time file transfer.

Is there a way to upload files through SQL syntax on the PHPmyAdmin Screen? That way I can just create a big INSERT INTO x WHERE x VALUES (all my values). However I don't know if it'd be possible because there is no browse feature available in SQL. All the files are alerady hosted on the server (as well as my hard drive), maybe it'd be possible to specify their server location for upload? Thanks in advanced.
