converting the storage engine InnoDB to MyISAM?

[sindy lee]

How can i convert the storage engine InnoDB to MyISAM?

I'd tried the followings, but they didn't work.

1. create a new table in my datebase with:

CREATE TABLE customers
(custid INT UNSIGNED AUTO_INCREMENT PRIMARY KEY,
name CHAR(40) UNIQUE) ENGINE=MyISAM;

2. alter a already existed table with:

ALTER TABLE table_name TYPE=MyISAM;

What should i do?
