Sir, naming a column "column" is generally considered a bad idea, regardless of the DBMS being used. It's like naming a variable "variable". Bob Hall -- All my databases are named "database", "datafile", "datafil", etc. The tables are all named "table", "tabell", "datasett", etc. Every one who has to do maintenance on the databases hates me. It's MySQL's fault for letting me set them up that way. --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
