</div>What's the reason? It's a different database, one cannot join the<br>
tables between mantis and the CSW database anyway, can one?</blockquote><div><br>Yup, you sure can. Because the two "databases" are running in a single mysql demon.<br><br>you just have to specify things as DB.table instead of just table.<br>

The other being for file contents.<br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; padding-left: 1ex;">

database structure - only some tables need small changes to make it<br>
work.</blockquote><div><br>That tells me nothing about what you are actually trying to DO ... ?<br><br><br></div></div><br>
