Re: LEFT JOIN and WHERE: identical or not and what is better?

'where' is a filter. You're limiting records based on a criterion. 'on' is used for joining. On Mon, Apr 25, 2011 at 10:42 AM, Andre Polykanine wrote: > Hello everyone, > Sorry for my beginner question. Actually I have been using MySql for a > long  time  but  I  just  start  using some

better way to backup 50 Gig db?

I'm using MySQL to manage data on my computer . The total data is 50 Gig in MyISAM folders. As I type, I already have the folder with the myd, frm, etc being copied offsite. As I understand it, if this computer dies tomorrow, I can reinstall MySQL on a new computer, drag over the archive, stick

reshaping challenge

I have a table with two columns, ID and order. Each ID can be repeated up to 16 timers. I need to reshape it so that I have one row per ID, and columns order1, order 2,...order 16, and one number that lists how many orders there actually were. No this is not a homework assignment. I'm trying to

MyISAM better than innodb for large files?

I'm going to be setting up a MySQL database for a project. My reading indicates that MyISAM (default) is going to be better than InnoDB for the project but I want to be sure I have the trade-offs right. This is going to be a very large data file -- many gigabytes -- only used internally, and onc

Q on Mysql install on OS X (SNow Leopard)

For some reason, the thing doesn't show the problem I posted already about foreign keys, but what it won't let me do is drop a schema once I've created it. How do I change permissions so MySQL on OS X can delete directories? Thanks! -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.
