"I may not be a smart man, but I do know what love is"
Of course I did this on a database that I didn't care about. This is my

Is there a more approved way of doing this, besides upgrading the server?

Is that all I needed to do? As I mentioned in another post, I screwed up
something else in there and I'll be playing with that tomorrow. If
there's an easier way to do it, please let me know.
