just want to know if mysql automatically update an index table if new datas are inserted into the original table. for example, if i insert a row of data to a table I'have already created an index table for, would mysql add the row to the table? --------------------------------- A passion till tomorrow, Opeyemi Obembe | ng.clawz.com --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
