Answer 1

are you trying to load csv files into a MySQL table? You can do that easily with the LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE command.

Example:

LOAD DATA LOCAL INFILE '/data.csv' INTO TABLE my_table FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','

You should be able to enter that command from any interface to MySQL. I'm assuming workbench has a way for you to execute sql queries.
