Please give advice, how to report and discuss bugs in HeidiSQL.

In Version 3.1RC1, it is not possible to update a table.
The same statemant in good old black screen shell of mysql wors fine.

Further there is a type mismatch with bolean columns.
If one refreshes the data display grid, the message "invalid variant" will be thrown.

Beyond that, it would be very fine to SEE the setting of boolean column values. There ist only written "bytes" or "BYTES" in the Cell.
In the difference to BLOB Fields, it woud be possible to write "TRUE" or "FALSE" or like MySQL "black screen shell" does, "0" or "1".

I cannot reproduce that. Would be fine if you could post like stated above and include the mysql version and the CREATE TABLE statement of the relevant table.

What do you mean by boolean columns? There is no datatype "boolean" in MySQL. Most people use ENUM instead

Never seen "bytes" in a cell yet, odd... Again - which datatype?

I don't know about most people, but the most logical choice would actually be to use a TINYINT(1), so you can use the integer 0 and 1 as 'representatives' for False and True.

btw, i think i read a while ago that there was going to be an implementation of the boolean type in a 5.something version.
