Hi folks, You might be amazed getting answers that link right to the MySQL documentation. The documentation is fabulous, but of course we cannot memorize it! One tip I picked up in a MySQL course (which was worth the $$ of the course itself), which is IMMENSELY useful, is the following:
If you go to http://www.mysql.com/FOO, where FOO is any word or phrase, you will either get directed to a page dealing with it, or mysql.com will search through the manual for it. Try it yourself -- http://www.mysql.com/select goes to the documentation page for select; similarly, "http://www.mysql.com/set option" works -- spaces, dashes, underscores, etc are all just handled. http://www.mysql.com/replication goes to the chapter on replication. Go to "http://www.mysql.com/archive engine" and you get the search results of mysql.com. It is very handy, and eliminates all of my "how do I do this?" kinds of questions. -Sheeri -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
