Hi, If I have a table with serveral keys on fields and when I do an insert I get
Duplicate entry 'blah' for key 3 Is there any way I can get the name of the key which failed? The number (3 in this case) seems totally pointless, even if you do a SHOW INDEX FROM mytable; there is no number which relates to the number given in the message, so how am I mean to work it out. I suppose I could do a 'SHOW INDEX' and work down counting, does it work like this and would it be reliable?!? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me here!!!
