And how does the person get access to those? And what script do I need
to write to make it happen? Don't get me wrong, the feature you worked
entirely too hard on to get working is valuable but... being able to
say, "SELECT * FROM give_me_my_db_info;" is much more useful in this
context.
In short, I should never have to go to log for this class of
information. It should be available in the database.
Sincerely,
