AM? Hmm. I just checked, and it seems it doesn't do anything. (For InnoDB tables, the query plan still shows type=ref rather than type=ALL after DISABLE KEYS.) -- Eric Jain -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
