Hi Lachlan!

You can enable that setting by clicking that tiny "notepad" icon on the left. After that you can change the value.

Greyed items aren't written to ini-file so MySQL uses default values for those settings. That's why there has to be an option to enable or disable setting.

I think that option to disable or enable setting is not so obvious and it causes lots of trouble to beginners.

Hi All

I am using MySQL Administrator 1.0.19/MySQL Server 4.1 on Win2000

I am trying to play with the MyIsam sort buffer size via the Administrator however all these options are greyed out (as are many other options throughout the administrator). I am logging on to the sever with root access on a stand alone workstation.

Can anyone tell me why this is and how to use these options from within administrator.

Kind Regards

Lachlan
