Hi,

my name is Ocke Janssen. I'm one the developers of OpenOffice and we have a little problem.
When we try to get the privileges from MySQL it may happen that the user hasn't the right to access these. Neither MyODBC nor Connector/J3 can give us the necessary information we need to allow the user only such things which he should be allowed. The first thing we could do is to fake the privileges and suggesting that the user can do all it want and wait for the error message from the database when he couldn't do it. Another way may be to ask for "Show grants fro user" and retrieve the information out of these string. Exists there any possibility to get this information, or what must be paid attention to when using "show grants"?

Any ideas are welcome.

Best regards,

Ocke Janssen
