It seems to me the max record | length is 528...? | According to the MySql docs, the max table size is AVG_ROW_LENGTH * MAX_ROWS We were trying to ensure the maximum amount of growth... this table can grow very very large.... We'll try an import with only 528 AVG_ROW_LENGTH and see what happens. | Also, you do normally not want an index on 255 characters of a | column... have you considered using "INDEX mIDIdx (mID(10))" and | "INDEX IcDupSortIDIdx (IcDupSortID(10))" or similar? | Got a build going with that right now! :) Thanks --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
