Sorry I didn't see that one when searching. I am on 4.1.10 so it looks like I will be upgrading the box this weekend. Thanks, Jake -- Jacob S.

I would rather not store a 32bit counter as a 64bit value, but I need the MAX function to work so in the mean time I will convert all these fields to BIGINT.

MAX on UNSIGNED INT Column
I have a column of type UNSIGNED INT which holds a 32bit counter. When the value of the field exceeds 2147483647 (signed max) the value of MAX on the column returns a negative number. If I convert the column to BIGINT the correct MAX is returned. Is this expected behavior, am I doing something wrong, is this a bug? I would rather not store a 32bit counter as a 64bit value, but I need the MAX function to work so in the mean time I will convert all these fields to BIGINT. Thanks, Jake -- Jacob S.
