67. Change column name. mysql> alter table [table name] change [old column name] [new column name] varchar (50);

68. Make a unique column so you get no dupes. mysql> alter table [table name] add unique ([column name]);

69. Make a column bigger. mysql> alter table [table name] modify [column name] VARCHAR(3);

70. Delete unique from table. mysql> alter table [table name] drop index [colmn name];

71. Load a CSV file into a table. mysql> LOAD DATA INFILE '/tmp/filename.csv' replace INTO TABLE [table name] FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' (field1,field2,field3);

72. Dump all databases for backup. Backup file is sql commands to recreate all db's. # [mysql dir]/bin/mysqldump -u root -ppassword --opt >/tmp/alldatabases.sql

73. Dump one database for backup. # [mysql dir]/bin/mysqldump -u username -ppassword --databases databasename >/tmp/databasename.sql

74. Dump a table from a database. # [mysql dir]/bin/mysqldump -c -u username -ppassword databasename tablename > /tmp/databasename.tablename.sql

75. Restore database (or database table) from backup. # [mysql dir]/bin/mysql -u username -ppassword databasename < /tmp/databasename.sql
