I am creating a database called Meet_a_Geek at MS DOS prompt. The customer table has about 30 fields..no time counting..but I noticed that I cannot go beyond 9 fields without ending with a semicolon. Also another problem crops up when I tried to recreate the customer table with the remaining fields yet to be created. The error message says "Customer Table existed".
Is there a windows program that I can input all at once with ease? I know more questions are keeping coming in...Please just refer me to good tutorial sites so I can continue and finish this assignment. You may take a glance at my assignment below from cut and paste with dos editor. ========================================== ========================================== mysql> use Meet_a_Geek; Database changed mysql> create table customers (Customer_ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREME NT, First_Name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, LAst_Name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL); Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.00 sec) mysql> show tables from Meet_a_Geek; +-----------------------+ | Tables_in_Meet_a_Geek | +-----------------------+ | customers | +-----------------------+ 1 row in set (0.01 sec) mysql> create table customers (Customer_ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREME NT, First_Name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, LAst_Name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL, address VAR CHAR(50), City VARCHAR(20), State VARCHAR(2), Zip VARCHAR(20), E_Mail VARCHAR(20 ), Age INT); ERROR 1050: Table 'customers' already exists mysql> create table customers (Customer_ID INT NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY AUTO_INCREME NT, First_Name VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL, LAst_Name VARCHAR(30) NOT NULL, address VAR CHAR(50), City VARCHAR(20), State VARCHAR(2), Zip VARCHAR(20), E_Mail VARCHAR(20 ), Age INT);
