Do you need to create a temp table or a heap table? Temp tables support those columns fine. Heap tables do not.

I am part of a small website dev shop and we just started using MySQL. I was tasked with the following: | Write a perl script(did this part) to open up the MySQL database and create a View (a temp table) from 3 different tables. I thought no problem I know how to do this I do this in Oracle all the time. BEEP! wrong thought. The docs say, no can do especially with TEXT or BLOB datatypes. Does anyone have any ideas on what I can do? The client needs a temp table to be created with data from 3 different tables for info purposes. They just want to do a select on the table to see what they want to see. | All help will be welcome. Thank you all in advance....Lupita | | | __________________________________________________________________ | Your favorite stores, helpful shopping tools and great gift ideas.
