Hey everyone, I have a question. If I do a mysql query that updates a column in a row to the same value, I get 0 rows affected. However, I also get 1 or more matched rows. Is there a way that I can return the number of matched rows, rather than the number of rows affected? I'm trying to get something done with as few SQL queries as possible. Thanks! James
