Getting closer.... Thanks...
This db had LOTS of tables... That's why I'm simply trying to get the total.
Is there a way to only get one column of this. then I can do something like select SUM(show table status (rows));
IF all the tables have the same table structure, create a MERGE table of them all, then SELECT count(*) FROM merged ;
