Hello;-) I recently lost the entire mysql Database when my harddrive crashed, fortunately, I thought, I had backed up all of the tables via "Backup tables Address,Travel, etc to '/apps/back/mysql/database';" The command worked, (once I created the directory and gave read/write power to mysql.daemon. And so I wasn't much worried until it came time to restore the relevant tables. I then issued the query "restore tables Address from '/apps/bak/mysql/database/Address';" and it didn't work. It kept telling me that it couldn't read the .frm file. But I just tried something and it did work, I left off the name of the table:-) Thanx Loads -- cya l8r Leon D.
