.sql files contain sructure and/or data of a sql database. For example you can import this file using phpmyadmin.

I'll give you an example. If you use a mysql and you want to backup it with phpmyadmin and select "save as file" (latest version of phpmyadmin) you'll get an sql file that contains all the data and structure of your mysql database. Let's say that something happens and your mysql gets corrupted. You can import your sql file using phpmyadmin and get back your mysql.

Using phpmyadmin : you'll see a browse button with a blank area next to it. Press browse and select from your local hard disk the sql file you want to import. Then press "Go" and that's it.

I hope I've helped you.

In that case or you must use a script that will do the job for you, or use telnet (if you have that kind of access) or you can always install phpmyadmin.
