Hi Brian,

You understand that (at present) you will  need to use Innodb tables if you 
want or already use Foreign key support  ?

O.K , just making sure you didn't miss that.

I can give you only advice how to do it in the mysql command line client.
Please login to the mysql command line client to execute the following 
programs.

Use "SHOW INDEX FROM tblname;" to see all indexes specified.

Use "SHOW CREATE tblname" to see the create statement for a table (including 
the indexes).

I assume you are confortable on the command line, so I dont include the screen 
output here as it wraps rather ugly in an e-mail.

Best regards
