Yes, you can set SELECT privilege on some tables and CREATE, DROP, INSERT privileges on the certain database. Use GRANT statement, look at: http://www.mysql.com/doc/G/R/GRANT.html Note: if you set SELECT privileges on some tables (f.e. table1 and table2), your users don't have SELECT privileges on tables, that will be created by themself ... So, you need to correct privileges on new tables or to set SELECT privileges on the whole database ... CS> Any help would be great..
