I am hoping this reaches the right place, I was sure I had sent it but didn't see it come to list...
I have two problems I am hoping to solve. 1) Is it possiblt to "combine" two update queries into one. So something like UPDATE table SET field=value WHERE field=value2 which makes up one statement can be combined to also have UPDATE table SET field2=value WHERE field2=value2 Currently I am using to UPDATE queries to do this but would like to cut it down if possible. 2) I have a table that seems to lock up at random. So in phpmyadmin it says "In Use". How can I remove this lock? I program in perl and PHP and would like to be able to free it up through one of these languages but am unsure of how to unlock it in mySQL alone.
