+ [6.15] I want to add a BLOB field and put an index on it, but MySQL
+ says "BLOB column '...' used in key specification without a key
+ length".
+
+ The right way to do this, is to create the field without any indexes,
+ then display the table structure and use the "Create an index"
+ dialog. On this page, you will be able to choose your BLOB field, and
+ set a size to the index, which is the condition to create an index on
+ a BLOB field.
