Why is there a limit of 500 bytes on the primary key? (MySQL-Max-3.23.43 on WinNT).
Is there a way to raise this limit? We have some tables with columns that are VARCHAR(200), and need to make a primary key based on combinations of these columns (in some cases, upto 4 columns), and MySQL complains for all of these table definitions that "Specified key was too long. Max key length is 500". -- Shankar Unni. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
