Crazy php script behaivor
See attached php script.
Note on line 16, I am restricting the range variable $cid to between 15000 & 16000.
What I really want to do is not restrict it AT ALL let it run from the first value to the last.
By trial & error, I learned that if I restrict the range to 10000, it works.
If I up it to 2000 (say 15000 to 17000), the script just spins a while and then gives NO result.
The file Customer.txt is a tab delimited file saved from a spreadsheet.
Why can't I do more than 1000 at a time?

OK, let's take a step back... What is the expected output from this script, ie, what are you trying to do here?
Ray,
It's kind of a long story.
In March, the table customer in the mysql database was created basically by uploading ALL the records in customer.txt; there are some axillary tables, one called comments. For reasons not relevant here, that is a separate table on the MySQL database.
Today the customer informed me of an anomaly. There was a record in the comments table for which there is no customer in the customer table.
So my first idea was just read through the .txt file & do a sql query on the customer table & echo the ones not there.
I guessed it would be a handful; I know there are only 2 between customers #'s 15000 and 17000.
FYI, the customer number start at 10000 and go to 23xxx.
Then I would deal with the handful somehow (tbd).

Rather read the CSV into a separate table and then use SQL to do the check - much easier than in code.
You can load the file directly with PHPMyAdmin / Workbench / SQLYog / Heidi or whatever Query tool you are using.

That implies that these tables are related a common field. Let's say you have
Customers
=========
cid -- this is the primary key
Comments
=========
id -- this is the primary field
cid -- this is the "link" between these two tables.
You can try executing:
SELECT A.cid FROM Comments A WHERE NOT EXISTS( SELECT B.cid FROM Customers B WHERE B.cid=A.cid)
You should get the cid values in Comments that don't have a matching/related record in Customers.
