PHPRunner General questions

When I create a table using phprunner, it creates tables with an underscore for the first character.

Why does it do this? Is it possible for it to not add this underscore?
Thanks

I noticed this aswell.
I used phpmyadmin to edit the tables

I use PHP Admin as well, but would be great to create directly in PHPRunner, without having to go from one program to another.
When a table has an underscore in front, it doesn't show in Frontpage, where we do some editing, etc. in the layouts. Would love it to have no underscore, but I'm sure there is a valid explanation for the underscore. If this must stay, do anyone know is there is some setting in Frontpage to see files with an underscore first caracter.

Right, I could rename the tables directly in mysql.

However, I don't know how to update PHPRunner with the renamed table.

I seem to have to create all new Views to work with the new table.

because of this underscore problem, i'm forced to create the tables in myphpadmin

and then create views using phprunner.

the create table feature in phprunner is pretty much useless with this problem.
cheers,

Hi,
the underscore prefix is used to distinguish tables created by PHPRunner from tables that were created before.
The next version of PHPRunner will create tables without underscore prefix.

Right now you can use any other database management software to create or alter tables.
