Right, but that wasn't exactly what I was asking. I'm fairly familiar with MySQL but am trying to understand this criticism of it. Not being familiar with other databases I have no reference point. What are they getting at? Why would you want to do a query of: SELECT * FROM database.schema.table; Obviously, this is non-sense in MySQL, where database <==> schema. -Thufir -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
