For example, php mysql library supports list_dbs and list_tables commands as well as getting table metadata. MySQL sql also 'natively' supports these commands (show databases, show tables, describe <tableName>). Why not similar commands for Oracle, SQLServer, etc.? These are simply selects against certain system tables, no? mike klein -- PHP Database Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
