The list of things that it's a set of:

ALTER TABLE `logins` ADD `categories`
SET ('spammer', 'murderer', 'kidnapper', 'thief', 'top-poster', 'terrorist');

Also, check that this is available on your version of MySQL.

It's available, I guess what has me buggered is that phpMyAdmin seems
like it will allow the interface to do this, but there's no way to add
the SET values.

the proper syntax for altering the table is :
ALTER TABLE logins ADD (categories varchar(20))
i think it will surely disappeared ur problem.
and if someone get right syntax from that which includes SET ,,,,,,so
plz inform me.......THANX ... :-)

Hi all I recently noticed when trying to optimise a major query of a chess website I am the webmaster of, that adding an order by for "gamenumber" which is a clustered index field as in for example "order by timeleft desc, gamenumber desc" actually speeded up the queries and reduced sql server 2000 timeouts. I have an ASP error log and I am fairly sure that a dramatic reduction in sql server timeouts is simply attributed to adding an...

This is an "Add product" form. The user will enter a ProductNo (catalog number), select a Product Class (from cascading combo boxes) and then click a button to create the product. When a product is added, a recordset (class) from a table (tblClassDetails - fields are: ClassID, SpecID) will be cloned into another table (tblClassProJoin - fields are ClassID, ProductID, SpecID and Value). Obviously, ClassID and SpecID will be cloned.

Hi, Is there a way to add a field to an existing table using a query of some sort (without needing to manually add a field to the table).
