Does the table you overwrote the data change much?
Adrian,
Yes. It's in my business tracking database so it's updated almost every
day.
If not it might be safer to just fetch it from the April 20th dump and
then apply the changes since then.
The column I FUBAR'd holds e-mail addresses. What I'll do is set all to
NULL
and find the e-mail addresses I have external to the database and enter
them
in a large UPDATE TABLE.
Or just fetch them from the table data you have saved in the dump file.
And I think I'll set up a cron job to do a database dump each day with the
date appended to the file name in the bash shell script.
Yeah, that will save a lot of heartburn:)
Thanks,
Rich
