Hi,

I cannot see a real difference between ROWA and ROWB

CREATE TABLE THE_TABLE
(
ROWA varchar(255) binary NOT NULL default '',
ROWA tinyblob NOT NULL
)ENGINE=InnoDB, DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

As far as I can see they are both 255 chars binary, (one can have
default while the other cannot).
Are they not both the same?

Sorry there was a small typo,
...
ROWA varchar(255) binary NOT NULL default '',
ROWB tinyblob NOT NULL
)ENGINE=InnoDB, DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8;

Thanks

You already found one difference.
There _might_ be functions that only accept blobs as a
parameter. I apologize for not taking the effort of
searching one.

You must be right.
I doubt that having/not having a default value is a reason for a new
variable.
