How Uninstall 3.23 and 4.0?

2005-01-17 Thread Uriel Wittenberg
Hi all. I had both 3.23 and 4.0 separately listed in my WinXP/Home Add or Remove Programs list. I was able to remove 4.0 but not 3.23. (It says it's stopping because it can't locate file uninst.isu.) Also, I still have MYSQL listed in ctl panel / admin tools / services and don't see how to

because a newline will indicate a new record, new lines have to be escaped. Else, you couldn't reasonably distinguish what's content and what's record seperator. Thanks for the reply. Seems to me mySQL should give me the \n I'm asking for rather than assuming that's not what I mean and
