exactly what the doctor ordered for working with mysql if you are a developer but not so much if you're an admin. (ie nothing about GRANT, REVOKE etc) Two strange ommissions is that it does not contain any entries for "RESTORE TABLE" or "BACKUP TABLE". The subtitle is "complete SQL reference and functions" and I suppose RESTORE and BACKUP are not really SQL, but they are still useful to a developer. Small whine about an otherwise good usefulness to cost ratio.
