If you really don't care what comes back, you don't even need to query a table: SELECT 1; If you perhaps want the column names, query the system tables. Otherwise the LIMIT 1 should be very fast, especially if you have no ordering. Avoid the "SELECT *" if you don't need all the columns for a little more speed. - -- Greg Sabino Mullane [EMAIL PROTECTED] PGP Key: 0x14964AC8 200312091943 -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iD8DBQE/1mynvJuQZxSWSsgRAk0HAKDKTHglcodYw2G9j5Il60e96Vv/xwCfcZ6p ffIBwsqFtqW0UABYttqzT3U= =JV2a -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
