RE: need for strength
Hi We have a sophisticated Underwiting management system written in MS Access. The programs and the data are in separate mdb's. The time has come to improve the product's client/server and web strengths. We came across mysql whilst investigating MS SQL server. Can we upsize our Access database to mysql easily and continue to use the Access programs to work with the mysql data? Thank you Chris Needs Peter Jacobsohn Telek Systems Chris Peter, The code will work with slight modifications AS LONG AS the database doesn't use subselects, stored procedures, stored queries, or (I just learned - thanks, Will!) joins in updates or deletes. I had to convert a 'sophisticated' website from Access to MySQL about a year ago, and there are many times that I felt I'd be better off recreating the database from scratch. The sheer volume of data (and the extremely denormalized structure of the original db) kept me from doing just that. There is no clear-cut yes or no here. You will have to look closely at the code and the original database. Yes, it can be done, but there is the possibility of a major rewrite of your code. Good Luck!

RE: Update problem
imho, the fact that mysql does not support joins in UPDATE and DELETE statements is by far its greatest weakness. I have posted a couple of messages to this group to see what creative work-arounds others have used to fill this gaping hole in functionality. Alas, no one has felt like sharing their thoughts on this subject. Will (and Phil) I think no-one's replied because the answer is really simple - create a recordset using Select for the records you are interested in (using your joins), then use that recordset to perform your UPDATE or DELETE. I have to deal with the same situation Phil describes quite often, but I've never missed the 'join in update' function. Not that it wouldn't be nice, but the workaround is not rocket surgery.

RE: Update problem
Will, First of all, if I sounded condescending, it was not my intent. I apologize if that's how you (or anyone else) took it. I will, however, respond to your smoking response to mine: I think no-one's replied because the answer is really simple Oh I don't know Jay, I've seen some threads 4-5 responses deep to issues far simpler than this. That does not make those questions and answers on-topic and appropriate or your question any more complex. I understand that you could use REPLACE with this newly created recordset to simulate the UPDATE w/JOIN, but your it's so simple response glosses over the details of what to do with the delete. The only way I've conceived is to carry an isdeleted... Perhaps you're using the wrong scripting language. Just because you have a hammer does not make everything a nail. Well I'm happy for you but did you ever stop and consider that what you do with your database may not necessarily be representative of what everyone does? Let's see - I read records, I do something with them, I update and delete them... No, I never stopped to think that you (or anyone) might be doing something different. In my situation, one that is certainly not unique, I have tables with 100+ fields and many million rows. The SELECT INTO/REPLACE FROM and SELECT INTO/REPLACE FROM/DELETE WHERE approaches to UPDATE FROM and DELETE FROM are an order of magnitude less efficient. This inefficiency coupled with the need (using myisam) to lock the entire table during updates makes for some not-so-simple design challenges. So you feel that forcing a lock while you do a huge join/delete is more efficient than: * Doing a select (using joins) against your properly indexed table (which should NOT require a lock in that you only want the record ID's) * Using the method of your choosing, deleting or updating the records so identified? I don't know the benchmarking which compares a WHERE IN() versus issuing individual updates/deletes while the table is open, but it would be easy enough to test. In closing, I offer a couple rhetorical questions: 1. Who is the bigger idiot... The person who asks a naive question or the person who, upon hearing a question he knows the answer to, assumes the asker is an idiot? Never did I assume that you were an idiot. What I assumed (and still do) is that you are overcomplicating the question. 2. Does your condescending attitude win you as many points with your users as it did with me? Will French I haven't had a complaint from my users yet. Again, If I sounded condescending, it was not my intent.

RE: I'm sure this should be simple but I can't get it
A basic description is that If Column A in Table 1 is Equal to
Column A in
table 2 then it returns the data from Column B in Table 2.
However, Column A
in Table 1 may contain a list of words that need to be matched
not just one
single entry.
If someone could point me in the right direction for some code or
a solution
I would be very appreciative.
select Table2.ColumnB
from Table1, Table2
WHERE Table1.ColumnA = Table2.ColumnA
And just in case I misunderstood the intent:
If 'Column A in Table 1' has space-delimited words in each record such as:
abc def ghi
I believe you could use a combination of CONCAT and REPLACE. The WHERE
clause would look something like:
WHERE Table2.ColumnA IN (CONCAT('',REPLACE(Table1.ColumnA,' ',','),''))
I haven't tested this at all and it may fail miserably, but it's where I
would start.

RE: Semi colons in text fields in update statement
There is no need for such an escape sequence because semicolons in strings are not special. Maybe it's an ADO bug. Paul et al - I think his problem is with quotes, not semicolons. The line Update tblCompany SET CoName='quot\;testerquot\;' WHERE CoID=109 is what leads me to believe this. Try double-escaping your quotes. A single escape usually only works until the first time it's referenced in code, at which time it is unescaped and becomes a straight quote again. I've had problems with this as well, but \\ seems to work well. A RegExp replace on the fly just before the update is how I usually handle it in ASP.

RE: Size of DB
I'm new to MySQL and I was wondering if there was a command that you can
issue to see the current size of a mysql database (in kb or MB)?
If your intent is to get the size 'on the fly' from within a web page, you
can use the filesystem object. I use ChiliSoft ASP but the solution is the
approximately the same for IIS ASP:
Syntax for a function to return filesize (in JScript/ASP) is:
function ShowFileSize(filespec)
{
var fs, f, s;
fs = new ActiveXObject(Scripting.FileSystemObject);
f = fs.GetFile(filespec);
s = f.Name + uses + f.size + bytes.;
Response.Write(s);
}

RE: COUNTNULL function
Calvin, Maybe I'm just confused (fairly likely), but it appears that you are confusing 'null' with zero. If you actually want to count all values including nulls, COUNT(*) will do it. If you want to count NON nulls, COUNT(a_field_name) does it. SUM(a_field_name) returns the sum of all non-null values for a_field_name. Appropriate WHERE, IN, or NOT IN clauses combined with a version of the COUNT and/or SUM functions should give you the results you need. Jay Evening Gurus, I have a small problem that I've beaten to death the past 2 days. I am trying to get the value of a row, and update another table accordingly. The data within the row is either a 1 or 0. My issue is in trying to increment a count for both 1's and 0's. In other words, I want to SUM up all the 1's and update a table with this sum. I also want to sum up all the 0's and add this total count to the table as well. This can be accomplished in a long query, or in through a language..what I am trying to accomplish is to get the total sum of each value without using a WHERE clause. Something akin to: SELECT ... SUM(bool_was_connected), COUNTNULL(bool_was_connected), etc... the SUM will sum up all non-null values. The COUNTNULL would sum up all rows which have a value of 0. Does anyone have a UDF for this function? I currently don't have room on my laptop to download the mysql source code in order to write this up. ( Also have not written a udf for mysql up to this point either) Thankyou kindly for any reply, Calvin - Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe, e-mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] Trouble unsubscribing?

RE: selecting what is not in something
Jeff, If the result table from the inner select is not huge, I usually issue the inner query by itself first, then build (in my scripting language of choice) a comma-delimited text field containing the results that I don't want in my final table. I then expand that text field into the 'NOT IN' clause, quoted as appropriate. It works reasonably well, but I haven't benchmarked the speed issues with large results from the inner query. Hope that helps. If MySQL asks me, my TOP priority is INNER SELECTs. But that's probably just me...

The mysql.sock that you refer to is PROBABLY a link to the 'real' mysql.sock located in another directory. It could be a recursive link, or just linked to a non-existant file. FIND for mysql.sock on your machine and see how many places it lives, then verify that the one giving the error (/var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock) is linked to the 'real' one.
