Thanks for this, I'll look into it.

mySQL does use slightly different syntax, and also the myODBC driver does some very strange things that you have to work around, so I imagine that the mySQL version will be the least stable.

If you find anymore in the mySQL version please let me know as I want to get all SQL compatible with mySQL.

I've found the problem you are having.

From the error message it looks like you are using mySQL 4.0 which does not support sub quires.

The mySQL server version of Web Wiz Forums requires mySQL 4.1 or above which does support sub quires.
