Re: Re: BINARY not recognized ??

I SWEAR to you that I am putting a space between WHEN and BINARY and user_name. I even typed it out manually using extra spaces between every command to be absolutely sure, but, MySQL insists on seeing BINARY user_name as BINARYuser_name no matter how many spaces I put between it. Here's what worked: WHEN BINARY(user_name)='Someone' > From: holmes072000@charter.net (Cpt John W. Holmes) > Organization: U.S. Army > Reply-To: "CPT John W.
