Re: FOR, WHILE, IF - do they exist in MySQL

MySQL, prior to V5 (which is still in beta test), has no support for procedures and, therefore, no use for control structures such as FOR and WHILE. V4 does have a simple IF structure, but again you need full blown procedures to do a traditional IF...THEN...ELSE.

All of this is coming in V5.
