[Gllug] MySql problem...

I have managed to get mysql up and running and I have created a few
tables... But.... I seem to have done something I shouldn't and it seems to
have let me..

I have created a field within a table with a dot in it. i.e.. Within Table
"users" a field called "user.name" instead of "user_name" 

When I open the table for edit, it allows me to press delete and it
disappears but then when I try an exit I get "[MyHost] ERROR 1091: Can't
DROP 'name'. Check that column/key exists" and thus it wont let me save.  I
have also tried a few things from the command line which more or less give
the same error.


Anyone able to help ?

Thanks.
Kristian
