Well MySQL will see all the changes coming from a single user (the user who the web site connects to the database as). You'll have to add your own routines to log that info to a table or something... Unless ofcourse, I'm missing something, which I doubt :) Regards, Chris. - Original Mes

Yes, evidentially, MS SQL Server does allow regular expressions. I've used this for a long time, and it's working just fine. I am using version 2000 since I started working with MS SQL Server, so maybe it is a new feature. Your suggestion appears to have resolved the problem. I really apprecia

I think you are trying to use a regular expression in the like phrase. I wasn't aware that MS SQL can do regular expressions at all? I've been using 2000 - perhaps the newer version can? In MySQL, instead of saying: LA.LastName LIKE '[A-E]%' try this: LA.LastName REGEXP '^[A-E]' You can

Karl, MySQL usually runs under its own user, the "mysql" user, not root, so it's quite likely MySQL is failing because it can't write into that directory. Dan On 8/21/06, Karl Larsen <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: I have mysql 5 on Fedora Core 4 linux via RPM files. It does not run. I used the
