Yes, the mysql utility "myisamchk" and the REPAIR command should be able to regenerate an MYI file from a .MYD and .frm files. After all, MDI file only contains the disk version of the indexes. Beware of possible issues if using different server version, though. -- Jaime Crespo MySQL & Java Instructor Warp Networks <http://warp.es> -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
