I using Mysql 3.22.29 under Mandrake 6.1. The Mysql client raises an
parse error when I try to define a field as 'text', 'mediumtext' or
'longtext'.

The command that I give is
mysql> create table test (id int(5), matter text, PRIMARY KEY (id));

The error that Mysql throws is:

ERROR: parse error near 'text, PRI....' at line 1

There  seems to be no problems with other datatypes as they the client
does not raise any error for them.

Can someone explain the same. I need a solution pretty urgently.
