		<description><![CDATA[When using Oracle, the data dictionary provides us with tons of tables and views, allowing us to fetch information about pretty much anything within the database. We do have information like that in MySQL 5.0 (and up) in the information_schema database, but it&#8217;s scattered through several different tables. Sometimes a client asks us to change [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The other day, a client mentioned they were getting strange results when running ALTER TABLE. The episode involved modifying an existing primary key to add an auto_increment primary key: it was &#8220;shifting&#8221; values. Say what?! As it turns out, it was a very special value getting changed: zero. Some fiddling revealed the underlying reason. Care [...]]]></description>
