When you need quick solutions or techniques, this handy resource provides scores of short, focused pieces of code, hundreds of worked-out examples, and clear, concise explanations for programmers who don't have the time (or expertise) to solve MySQL problems from scratch.

* Use the mysql client and write MySQL-based programs
* Create, populate, and select data from tables
* Store, retrieve, and manipulate strings
* Work with dates and times
* Sort query results and generate summaries
* Use stored routines, triggers, and scheduled events
* Import, export, validate, and reformat data
* Perform transactions and work with statistics
* Process web input, and generate web content from query results
* Use MySQL-based web session management
* Provide security and server administration

Paul went on to write more than six books on MySQL, including the first edition of "MySQL Cookbook". He is also the author of "Using csh & tcsh" and "Software Portability with imake", both by O'Reilly.
