Can you elaborate more on the error?

Some years ago I was using the sql task and had a file full of SQL statements... When I tried to use the sql task I was getting errors as well. The solution, if memory serves, is that I had to use a \ character at the end of each line until SQL termination. So, if I had something like:

create table foo
(
bar as int
);

I had to do this kind of thing:

create table foo \
( \
bar as int \
);

The problem (again if I can remember correctly) was that each line (meaning new line/carriage return) was being interpreted as the "whole" sql statement and submitted.

using the sql task's src attribute i source a mysqldump file and it errors.
mysql can source the file with no problems.
but in ant I source it and theres a syntax error.
There is no delimiter being set in the source.
also if take individually two insert statement and source those it works.
but i combine them and i get a syntax error.

in the mysqldump the text fields are xml documents so they have almost every
imagineable character.

im using standard utf8 encoding.   any ideas?
