Thanks Brent. I know 157K rows isn't a lot, but you probably don't realise just how budget this hardware is. :) Anyway I'm pleased to say that I was pleasantly surprised at how fast the query completed even on this less than ideal server, it takes around a minute. As I only need to do it once a day and even once a week would be acceptable, there's plenty of room for growth there. Thanks for reassuring me there. :) --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
