Dear Sir,
l created a 'vacc_table.sql' script as follow :
CREATE TABLE batches
( batch_no int(4) ,
batch_title char(20)
);
CREATE TABLE chart_of_acc_a
(
desp varchar(80) NOT NULL,
acc_no_a char(8) NOT NULL,
id char
);
CREATE TABLE chart_of_acc_b
( acc_no_b char(8) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
desp varchar(80) NOT NULL,
id char
);
after that ,
mysql>create database vaccount;
Query OK,1 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql>use account;
Database changed
mysql><\. vacc_table.sql
Query OK,0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK,0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
Query OK,0 rows affected (0.00 sec)
mysql>describe chart_of_acc_b;
--------------------------------------------------------------
Field Type Null Key Default Extra
--------------------------------------------------------------
acc_no_b varchar(8) PRI
desp varchar(80)
id char(1) YES NULL
--------------------------------------------------------------
3 rows in set (0.01sec)
mysql>
l discovered that the field "acc_no_b" displayed with
a "varchar(8)"!
which is different from my 'vacc_table.sql' script ,
because l defined
the field to be "char(8)" !!!
is there any wrong with my script ??
l am using mysql 4.0.4-0 and redhat 7.3
Thank U ... : )
Yours Faithfully,
