Specifically, it appears that the schema does > not support the deceleration of primary keys. Am I right, and if so, why? The reason is that Metabase does not support it. And the reason that Metabase does not support it yet is that Manuel probably did not get around to implement it. Once the driver situation is clear up and the documentation is done I will start to investigate what to work on next. The MDB_Frontend is one area I want to work on. Adding Primary and Foreign Key Support is another. However my time is fairly limited. So I will take it one at a time. Feedback like this is very welcome however. > Also, the reverse engineer script for mysql tables appears to ignore > unsigned integers when parsing. I will look into it. One side note however: don't expect miracles from the reverse engineering. Its main goal is to get you started. It cant resolve ambiguity automatically. Regards, Lukas
