Hi Dan,

(Sending to the General list too, since this isn't a Windows-specific
thing.)

SHOW TABLE STATUS LIKE 'tbl_name'

will show you the current Avg_row_length.

But the specific values for MAX_ROWS and AVG_ROW_LENGTH when you CREATE
or ALTER the table don't matter (except for "looking correct" :-)) as
long as their product is greater than 4GB.  BTW, you can't have the
limit be 8GB -- when you go greater than 4GB, the Max_data_length will
be 1TB.


Hope that helps.


Matt
