RE: Can someone explain???? strange query!!
[snip] I did two query, can someone explain what happened? First query: mysql> select * from customer_billing where first_name="shad"; mysql> select first_name, customer_num from customer_billing where first_name="shad"; Now these query is the same except for the '*'? [/snip] http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/string-syntax.html What happens if you try this... select * from customer_billing where first_name='shad' -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
