I did that but my real problem is that a new table suddenly
appeared. The name of the table is 49ee1862 Looking at the
data in the table it is an image of another table. I can't
seem to get rid of that table because it is referenced.
When I did list keys, that table does not show up. Any ideas
what I should try next?


That is the result of un-finished process while in data designer.

Here's how to DROP that table.

01. CONNECT dbname

02. Make sure that the database IDQUOTES SETting is set to `.
    It is the reversed single quote on the same key with "~".

    You may correct this settings as:

    SET IDQUOTES=`

03. Now rename the ghost table.

    RENAME TABLE `49ee1862` TO JunkTable NOCHECK

04. DROP TABLE JunkTable

That's all there is to it!

Very Best R:egards,
