definitely keep your suggestions in mind for more serious archiving
of data in the future.
Thanks again!

Do you need to archive it forever? Do you need live access to it?
If you just need to archive it, read the man page for mysqldump. You can
dump specific rows to a file, rename that file dump.2002.05.24, compress it
with gzip, and voila, you have all of your data readily available, easily
