Hi Folks, Newbie question.... I have a mysql table with 100 fields, currently all do not allow nulls. Rather than hand typing in phpMyAdmin, I would like a way to loop through all fields and update them to allow nulls....
First I would DESCRIBE the table so you get a list of column names and attributes. Then I would go thru each column and CHANGE it so it has the same attributes, adding the NULL flag if necessary. There may be an easier way however. Jay
