Show Statement

programmervb netc

This may be a stupid question but is there a way that I can a statement in mySQL. I need to change how the SHOW statement works. I realize I could do this with a different function of my own but I am needing to use the existing function if possible. Any help is appreciated. Humble Programmer

Can I change what the SHOW statement does.... For example it runs a certain SQL statement that is defined somewhere in mySQL. I wonder can I change that statement to do something different or maybe make it call a different statement. Humble Programmer

It's an internal command - you can't modify the behaviour of the internal commands otherwise you could end up breaking other functionality that relied on that behaviour.

Could I maybe overload it with another parm? Humble Programmer

You tell us. Look at the docs for it. They tell you what it does. If it isn't there then it doesn't do it. http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/show.html[^]

Do you have the source-code of the function? There's your answer :)
