This code requires country-codes.csv.

\DTLloaddb{countries}{country-codes.csv}
\begin{document}
If the data is too large to fit on a single page we need to use the
\texttt{longtable} environment instead. See Table~\ref{tab:countries}.
\begin{longtable}{cl}
% Set up headers and footers
\caption{A Sample Long Table}
\label{tab:countries}\\
\bfseries Country Code & \bfseries Country Name\\

\caption{A Sample Long Table (Continued)}\\
\bfseries Country Code & \bfseries Country Name\\

\multicolumn{2}{r}{\emph{Continued on next page}}\\
\endfoot
\endlastfoot
\DTLforeach*{countries}{\Code=code,\Name=name}{\Code&\Name\\}%
