Thanks in advance. You can revert back to 3.23.

Re: grant tables update backward compatibility
Hi Eric,: Thanks for responding. Preliminary tests indicate no problems, although it does of necessity make assumptions about which of the new privileges existing users should have when upgrading, but they were fairly safe. Regards, -Bob I would assume that you can since mysql probably does an internal select col, col1 to get the grant information and the new tables contain everything that the old ones do plus some extra privileges. The only thing I would worry about would be passwords changing. Make a small test case and let everybody know. :) -Eric On Fri, 3 Sep 2004 09:43:28 -0700 (GMT-07:00), [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Hi there, I have been using mysql 3.23.58, and I want to upgrade to 4.0.20.
