you must retrieve all the rows even if you determine in mid-retrieval that you've found the information you were looking for. My question is: why? In fact I thought that the normal interface for a database would show a screen full of results and then let you decide whether to go on to the next screen or quit. It seems crazy that if you do a query that gives a million results you have to retrieve them all. BTW I tried searching for an answer in the list archives but the search there doesn't seem to work very well. I type in mysql_use_result() and get back messages that don't mention it. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
