Re: dumb question?
Goede morgen,
and thank you for your suggestion.
I am actually wondering if the difference between lasso 8.1 and 8.6 is so big
that traditional lasso code can not be used when connecting w/ MySQL ?
You mentioned ... This can be done in the server configuration, so no
alterations are necessary Do you mean one of the mode that came with
lasso (Server, site)
to resume may I ask you to confirm: the simple code [inline:-add,
-database=..., -table=..., field=value] can not be used anymore w/ MySQL, or
can it?
Alvast Bedankt

2011/07/06 23:56 -0700, XL Cordemans Goede morgen, and thank you for your suggestion. I am actually wondering if the difference between lasso 8.1 and 8.6 is so big that traditional lasso code can not be used when connecting w/ MySQL ? You mentioned ... This can be done in the server configuration, so no alterations are necessary This mode is set in my.cnf (under Windows my.ini), found in one of a variety of standard places, in the variable sql-mode, say sql-mode=ANSI,STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_AUTO_CREATE_USER,NO_ENGINE_SUBSTITUTION . The mode in question is ANSI. There is always a copy of this file in the directory into which the program MySQL was installed, but that is not the first place where it is sought. Under Linux, say, /etc/my.cnf takes precedence. Quote from help: On Windows, MySQL programs read startup options from the following files, in the specified order (top items are used first). File NamePurpose WINDIR\my.ini, WINDIR\my.cnf Global options C:\my.ini, C:\my.cnf Global options INSTALLDIR\my.ini, INSTALLDIR\my.cnf Global options On Unix, Linux and Mac OS X, MySQL programs read startup options from the following files, in the specified order (top items are used first). File NamePurpose /etc/my.cnf Global options /etc/mysql/my.cnfGlobal options SYSCONFDIR/my.cnfGlobal options $MYSQL_HOME/my.cnf Server-specific options defaults-extra-file The file specified with --defaults-extra-file=path, if any ~/.my.cnfUser-specific options ~ represents the current user's home directory (the value of $HOME). SYSCONFDIR represents the directory specified with the SYSCONFDIR option to CMake when MySQL was built. By default, this is the etc directory located under the compiled-in installation directory. MYSQL_HOME is an environment variable containing the path to the directory in which the server-specific my.cnf file resides. If MYSQL_HOME is not set and you start the server using the mysqld_safe program, mysqld_safe attempts to set MYSQL_HOME as follows: Let BASEDIR and DATADIR represent the path names of the MySQL base directory and data directory, respectively. If there is a my.cnf file in DATADIR but not in BASEDIR, mysqld_safe sets MYSQL_HOME to DATADIR. Otherwise, if MYSQL_HOME is not set and there is no my.cnf file in DATADIR, mysqld_safe sets MYSQL_HOME to BASEDIR. In MySQL 5.5, use of DATADIR as the location for my.cnf is deprecated. Typically, DATADIR is /usr/local/mysql/data for a binary installation or /usr/local/var for a source installation. Note that this is the data directory location that was specified at configuration time, not the one specified with the --datadir option when mysqld starts. Use of --datadir at runtime has no effect on where the server looks for option files, because it looks for them before processing any options. MySQL looks for option files in the order just described and reads any that exist. If an option file that you want to use does not exist, create it with a plain text editor. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/mysql?unsub=arch...@jab.org

String values are always ticked VALUES('MYNAME') unless ANSI_QUOTES are enabled
Column names are never surrounded by ticks or double quotes so
TABLE table_name
FOO VARCHAR(30)
/snip
where the INSERT statement for table table_name column FOO would look like:
INSERT INTO table_name FOO VALUES('VALUES ARE ALWAYS SURROUNDED BY TICK MARKS

Re: Dumb question (joining tables)
wrote: I have large fact table, in which there are much ids (that are in fact foreign keys but as long as I use MyISAM engine them are not technically). So when I try to join another table (that contains text descriptions for each id from one of fact columns, so it has two fields (id (PK) and name)) in my query, it chooses strange execution plan. When I do simple join, it uses my second table as first, scanning it and joining records from fact table by their foreign key. If I do straight join or left outer join it makes full scan of second table, ignorig its pk (use key(primary) doesn't help). I guess, standart execution plan for all such cases must be scan of first table joining all other description tables by their PKs. Forgot to say that query fetches all data from fact table, grouping by some columns. You have not given us your table definitions or your queries.

Re: Dumb Question - Moving Data from Access to MySQL
Jeremy Proffitt wrote: Dumb Question. I need to move my data from their current access database to my new MySQL server through an ODBC connection. The tables on both ends are set up identially. I have added a linked table to the access database called EXPARTAB1. The data is in EXPARTAB. I tried: INSERT INTO EXPARTAB1 VALUES (SELECT * FROM EXPARTAB) That should be: insert into EXPARTAB1 select * from EXPARTAB or maybe you should do something like: insert into destination_tablename ( field_1, field_2 ) select field_1, field_2 from source_tablename You'll have to do it the 2nd way if you change any field names. This is the most reliable way to shift data from one database to the other ( via Access ). You can use scripts, but you have to rely on the author of the script setting the data types correctly. Setup your tables yourself, making sure all your destination fields can accommodate your data, and the make a set of queries in Access ( access calls them 'append queries' ). If there is a problem, Access will usually let you know where it occured so you can go and fix it. -- Daniel Kasak IT Developer * NUS Consulting Group* Level 18, 168 Walker Street North Sydney, NSW, Australia 2060 T: (+61) 2 9922-7676 / F: (+61) 2 9922 7989 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] website: http://www.nusconsulting.com -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Re: Dumb Question: Listing tables in telnet
Todd, The arrow is like the PS2 prompt from your shell in Unix. That is, the first line of your command says Mysql and every line thereafter is just a greater-than. This is because the mysql client is waiting for more commands. You can enter more than one command at a time this way, and not have to write it all out on one line. When you are finished with a command, place a semi-colon or a backslash-g. In other words, I think you wanted to enter the following command: Mysql show tables ; or Mysql show tables \g Note that the spacing between the command and the semi-colon (or \g) doesn't matter, you can have the sem come right after your text or you can add a space for clarity. --- Todd Williamsen [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I looked all through the documentation for this and I cannot find the command for listing tables in mysql in telnet.
