Hi guys,

I'm working on django tutorial that is in "www.djangobook.com", I'm in
chapter6 where i'm in the process of creating an admin Web site.
The site is created and it works just perfectly, the thing is I'm
trying to make some date and numeric fields optional, so I modified
the models.py folder and added the "null=True" statement as follows:

publication_date = models.DateField(blank=True, null=True)

now according to what's written in the book, it is my responsibility
to ALTER TABLE statement whenever such a change is made in the
models.py file, so I did the following:
 1. called python manage.py dbshell from the command line
 2. when i got the dbshell "mysql>", i wrote the following statement
     ALTER TABLE books_book ALTER COLUMN publication_date DROP NOT
NULL;

I'm getting "ALTER is not an internal command, external command,
program or commandfile"

WHY???

thanks for explaining,
cheers,
Lina
