Import CSV to MySQL with long text fields containing line breaks I'm trying to import a CSV file (';' separated) to a MySQL table.
Normaly, I use a SQL like:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE 'local-path/file.csv' 
INTO TABLE tmp_table
CHARACTER SET latin1
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ';'


It always works fine to me, but now I have a CSV with a text field including many '\n','\r', and stuff like that. When I make the import, apparently, MySQL interprets the line breaks as a new field, spoiling all import.

I'd like to know if exists some method to indicate to MySQL to ignore any other symbol except the ';'. 

I'm using MySQL workbench to make the import. My CSV have 3 fields (locale,id,terms) and my table have columns locale - VARCHAR(5), id- VARCHAR(50) and terms - TEXT (here is the problem).

Here I found some similar problems, but apparently is not the same thing, I'm not looking for multiple delimiters, I just want for a way to ignore \n and \r from text fields when I'm importing the CSV.
According to the MySQL docs, you can set both the field and line delimiters in the LOAD DATA statement:

[{FIELDS | COLUMNS}
    [TERMINATED BY 'string']
    [[OPTIONALLY] ENCLOSED BY 'char']
    [ESCAPED BY 'char']
]
[LINES
    [STARTING BY 'string']
    [TERMINATED BY 'string']
]


That should enable you to import the TEXT data.  Just be careful in choosing your delimiters!
