------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Mar 31 00:09:47 -0800 2006 ------- WinXP, MySQL 5.0.18 using InnoDB as engine, latest JDBC Connector, OOo 2.0.2, SQLYog4.1 1) Make db 'bughunt' using SQLYog. Enter fields with 'boolean' & 'bool' datatype and fields with 'text' and 'tinytext' datatype. Connect to db using Base as root, open table 'bughunt' for editing. Both boolean and bool have become 'Yes/No [BIT]' (instead of BOOLEAN). 'text' has become 'Memo [TEXT]' and 'tinytext' has become 'Text [VARCHAR]'. Not exactly intuitive changes. 2) But it gets worse the other way. Now enter (using Base) fields with datatypes 'Yes/No [BOOLEAN]' and 'Yes/No [BIT]'. And 'Memo [TINYTEXT]'. Save, Close. From the menu 'Refresh Tables'. Reopen for editing. Now 'Yes/No [BOOLEAN]' has become 'Yes/No [BIT]' 'Yes/No [BIT]' has become 'Text [VARCHAR]' and 'Memo [TINYTEXT]' has become 'Text [VARCHAR]' as well. I have encountered number of such mutations related to other datatypes, just have no time right now to dig deeper. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
