Thanks a lot Edwards! I'm using MySQL 5.1. Your query works great! ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rolando Edwards" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Elim Qiu" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <mysql@lists.mysql.com> Sent: Friday, June 13, 2008 10:32 AM Subject: RE: query counts of a database
If you are using MySQL 5.0 or later, use the INFORMATION_SCHEMA database. It has an in-memory table of table names called (as you would expect) 'tables'. SELECT table_rows,table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = '<whatever database you choose>'; If you are using a current database then do this: SELECT table_rows,table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = DATABASE(); Or SELECT table_rows,table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = SCHEMA(); Give it a try !!! -----Original Message----- From: Elim Qiu [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 13, 2008 11:56 AM To: mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: query counts of a database I'm looking for a query that reports the count of each table in the database. the query should not assume the table list of the database.
