Dhu,
I just saw that MySQL Query Browser treats // as start for a single line comment (like in C++, Java or Delphi), which is wrong. The command line (mysql) does work correctly, though, by handling a // sequence as normal characters, not comments. So this must be considered as bug in QB. I'm going to remove this. In the meantime use another delimiter like $ or %.
