There are -- but unfortunately there's no magic wand :-( You really do have to read the changelogs and determine what matters to you. You already said you use stored procedures and functions, and a lot of the bug fixes involve those. The more complex your usage, the more work upgrades are. I would suggest using the mk-upgrade tool from Maatkit to help ferret out issues. - Baron -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org
