GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON ppsntracker.* TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] WITH GRANT OPTION; Although I wouldn't recommend this for security purposes; it's a much more secure idea to selectively grant the privileges as necessary to the user and assign a password, such as GRANT SELECT,INSERT,DELETE ON ppsntracker.* TO [EMAIL PROTECTED] IDENTIFIED BY 'password'; And so forth. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
