Mixed Data Entry into MySQL

I need help transferring a collection of mixed data—text fields interspersed with numbers—into my existing MySQL database. All source material is already organised; what I’m missing is the time to key it in accurately, run a quick double-check for obvious errors, and commit it to the correct tables and columns.

Here’s what matters to me:
• Each record must land in the right table with field-level accuracy.
• Any formatting quirks in the source (e.g., leading zeros, special characters) should be preserved.
• After import, a simple SELECT count(*) comparison against the source row count will confirm nothing went missing.

You’re welcome to use the toolchain you prefer—phpMyAdmin, MySQL Workbench, custom scripts, or direct SQL inserts—as long as the final result sits cleanly inside MySQL and is ready for immediate use.

If you’ve handled mixed-type data loads before and can start soon, I’d love to hear how quickly you can turn this around and any questions you have about the schema.
