All I want to do is add a comment to a table's column.  Is this
safe to do in mulit-user mode, or does it still require RBase to
do the whole routine of creating that temporary table in memory,
etc...   It's a really big table with over 1 million rows in it.

Here's how:

COMMENT ON TABLE `tablename` IS 'your comment here ...'

COMMENT ON VIEW `viewname` IS 'your comment here ...'

Using R:BASE eXtreme 9.1 (32) or R:BASE 7.6, the limit is 51 characters.

Using R:BASE eXtreme 9.1 (64) or R:BASE V-8, the limit is 128 characters.

Very Best R:egards,
