Thanks Egor, but the table names in the example are already lower case and I pasted them in SQL window of the client.
Since yesterday I have test to type the script manually at the prompt in a DOS-window and then all worked well. Trying to do the same in the SQL-window of MySQL-Front all was OK until I typed the statement: select shop.article, dealer, shop.price from shop, tmp where shop.article=tmp.article and shop.price=tmp.price; Now I got an alert-box which tells me: Table 'mybase.tmp' does'nt exist. Finally, it was no problem to: drop table tmp; Seems that the problem depends on MySQL-Front.
