Mysql UNIQUE and .lc server scripts?

[Mark Schonewille]

Hi John,

After executing a MySQL command with revExecuteSQL, the result contains 
either an error or an integer. If the result is an error, then you know 
that the change couldn't be made and 0 records were affected. If the 
result is an integer, then you need to check that the integer is greater 
than 0. If it isn't, something may have gone wrong and 0 records were 
affected.
