Not from SHOW TABLE STATUS, but you can duplicate a table. From the "create table" docs (http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/CREATE_TABLE.html): "In MySQL 4.1, you can also use LIKE to create a table based on the definition of another table, including any column attributes and indexes the original table has: CREATE TABLE new_tbl LIKE orig_tbl; CREATE TABLE ... LIKE does not copy any DATA DIRECTORY or INDEX DIRECTORY table options that were specified for the original table." > Q: Does v5 have system views that are equivalent to SHOW xyz commands ? > > Thanks, > Richard A.
