Hi, When you use the replace command if the row does not exist it is inserted.
MySQL Reference Manual: Section 14.1.6 REPLACE works exactly like INSERT, except that if an old record in the table has the same value as a new record for a PRIMARY KEY or a UNIQUE index, the old record is deleted before the new record is inserted Regards, Laercio. -----Original Message----- From: news [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Harald Fuchs Sent: quinta-feira, 30 de setembro de 2004 11:39 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: (if !update then insert) sequence - result Duplicate key :( In article <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Laercio Xisto Braga Cavalcanti" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: > Hi, > To solve this you can use the REPLACE command.

How could you use REPLACE for that? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
