Subhakar, Nils already answered the first question.
About the second question, there unfortunately is no way to extract only the table name and the type from SHOW TABLE STATUS. MySQL does not store table information into any table, but in .frm files in the database directories under the datadir. This is a known weakness, and should be fixed some time in the future.

Please clarify... For my second question, I need only the table_name and table_type information, and avoid the rest, for an instance. I tried the tables_priv table in mysql database, but of no use. Any idea where MYSQL stores the status information inside the database?
