to have the engine MYISAM instead of HEAP,do i just rename it? is the CHARSET ok? CREATE TABLE `table` ( `line_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `from_id` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `from_name` varchar(64) NOT NULL default '', `line_stamp` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `line_txt` varchar(255) NOT NULL default '', `line_biu` char(3) NOT NULL default '', `line_clr` varchar(32) NOT NULL default '' ) ENGINE=MYISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1 MAX_ROWS=15000; Code (markup):
If you have already created the database then on First Page of phpMyAdmin there is option to convert database type. Charset is dependent on characters 'you will insert'. Use UTF if your not certain.
