[sql]ALTER TABLE `sometable` ADD INDEX (`someid`)[/sql]
any idea why i get an sql error?
to create it, i used:
[sql]ALTER TABLE `sometable` DROP INDEX (`someid`)[/sql]

i also tried this way:
[sql]ALTER TABLE sometable ADD INDEX (someid)[/sql]
and:
[sql]ALTER TABLE sometable DROP INDEX (someid)[/sql]

mysql error: You have an error in your SQL syntax near '(someid)' at line 1

i also tried:

What Freddie posted worked for me. Just make sure what you are dropping has been INDEXed.
