No, since you don't use that column at all. If you're not on MySQL 5, upgrading to MySQL 5 will help. Otherwise, you're best bet is to rewrite the query as UNION clauses with one of your WHERE conditions in each. I know it sounds crazy, but before MySQL 5 the use of indexes with OR queries was not very good. - Perrin -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
