Does anyone know of a way to make a field in a table of a mysql

functionality for this built in to mysql or do I have to write a
script and run it as a cron job?
It's definitely a job for a cron script. You're exporting your database
for backups every night ... aren't you?!? Just add your auto-delete to
that script. :-)
Any chance of those paper cups and string being upgraded to tin cans
and wire? Or as a coworker has said . . . I've seen better throughput
from a pair of gorillas and flash cards. -Jon Lewis <jle...@fdt.net>
