Are you saying that you can't add columns to a table (to grow the schema incrementally between software versions) without losing all your foreign-key constraints? Or having to dump and restore databases each time? Would it work to drop and recreate all the foreign-key constraints after each alter table? -- Shankar. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
