Database name goes after options. It is showing you the help page because it does not understand what you are passing to it. It's kind of saying "Here, look at this, this is how I work, follow these directions they might help you out." -----Original Message----- From: Anil Garg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 06, 2003 10:26 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: command line exectution of query(newbie) Hi, What am i doing wrong: # ./mysql <database name> -e "delete * from <table name> where id > 5;" I get the mysql help page on exectuting the above command.
