Hi Jay,
you suggestion does not make any difference.
The problem is that @idsum seems to be destroyed for every row!
Is there any other access method on a query that works properly
or do I have to live with different results of the very same
query asked directly in MySQL and asked through P

I would like to be able to sum up a collumns values already in
MySQL. The following query will sum up all values of the column
'id':
SELECT @idsum:=(IFNULL(@idsum, id)+id), id FROM yourtable;
Now a question to the PHP/MySQL experienced: Why does this type

For small result sets where I am looking for column totals I generally issue
