Error Importing

I am trying to import my SQL from a 1.2 (the one before 1.5?) installation but receive the following error attempting to import into 2.0.

#1064 – You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘– phpMyAdmin SQL Dump
— version 2.6.0-pl2
— http://www.phpmyadmin.net
-‘ at line 1

I can’t figure it out.

The first few lines from my .sql file:

— phpMyAdmin SQL Dump
— version 2.6.0-pl2
— http://www.phpmyadmin.net
—
— Host: localhost
— Generation Time: Nov 11, 2004 at 12:08 PM
— Server version: 4.0.20
— PHP Version: 4.3.9

Any help much appreciated.
