Hi all,
I'm using Python 2.3 and the MySQLDB module on a Mandrake Linux 9.2 system
and I'm encountering a problem whentrying to insert a string object intoa
varchar field in a database I'm using. The query being sent to the MySQL
server by my program is : INSERT INTO analysis (DrawNumber,poo l1)VALUES
(847, ' (4, 8, 21, 24, 39, 44) ' ) ;
But the field pool1 actually contains (4, 8, 21, 24, 39, i.e it is
missing the final digits ( 44 ) and the closing bracket.The program writes
a number of rows into the database and they all exhibit the same behaviour
- could anyone shed some light on this problem? Thanks,
Lol McBride

Did you by any chance declare the field to be 19 characters wide when
creating the database? Truncating to the length of the field is, I
think, normal SQL practise.
Just a thought,
Mike
