Re: When does the timestamp field gets updated?

Sinisa, A good way to prove that mysqldump is doing what it should, might be to do a describe TESTBADDUMP; I think this will prove that mysqldump is just dumping what is in the table def, which is all you can expect. Have a great day... John On Monday 18 June 2001 09:46, Sinisa Milivojevic w
