I would suggest you read the e-week article about how un-microsoftish this combination of tools (MySQL/MM.MySQL) is. In the future, I suggest that you use less of an accusatory tone, seeing as how hundreds of thousands of people have made this combination work just fine with little or no hand-holding, you seem to require a lot of direction and hand-holding, and sell this level of competence as a "service" to your "client". -Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- 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?
