Is there any documentation for the mySQL unit?
I'd like to check what errors I get from using mySQL, ie: check for the existance of a table, do appropiate action, etc...
cheers

The only documentation is the mysql documentation itself; The mysql unit is simply a translation of the mysql C headers.
The mysql_error() function returns a string that describes the error, maybe this is enough for your purposes.

thanks Michael...
I'd assume then that the makers of mySQL would have made all errors to a standard of some sort, so that the program will work throughout most versions of mySQL. (I hope *fingers crossed*). Anyway, I'll investigate...

James,

The mysql unit is a direct translation of the MySQL C API, so you can use the docs provided with MySQL itself.
