Hi, i have never used set's before, and dont quite understand how the data is retrived from a set.

I know how to retrive data from normal fields.


could someone give me info. i have looked through a few books, but nothing.

Thanx so much

Can you explain what you mean by 'sets'?

Standard MySQL retrieves go along the lines of

SELECT (feild names) FROM (table name) WHERE (condition)

e.g. SELECT ID, Name, Address FROM Customers WHERE Name='Bob'

SET, its a type of field, like TEXT, or VARCHAR

dont matter
