Hello,

I am trying to write a db creation script that will create a database as a well as 
repair an existing database.  What I can't seem to find is a set of key words that 
will allow me to detect if a column or index already exists in a table and thus skip 
the creation of the column or index.  I've found the proper syntax to check for table 
existance, but I can't find the syntax for column/index existance.

If someone could point me to a set of docs or an example SQL command, that would be 
great.

I'm using 4.1.1-alpha.

Thanks much

Shishir Ghate
