You didn't mention your version of MySQL, but I suspect it's old. Remove the "PACK_KEYS=1" text and it should work fine. I also suggest upgrading to a more recent MySQL if in fact you're running an older version. -- Steve Werby President, Befriend Internet Services LLC http://www.befriend.com/ --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
