You are getting error because u r directly wrighting limit variable.
instead prepare the query using concat and then execute the query in
procedure.
Some thing of this sort will do

query=concat('insert into' variable1 , 'select * from table' ,
variable2);
set query1=query;
prepary query1 ;
execute query1;

Hi All,
How's the exam preparation going on ? We have only 3 left to give it.
Those who all have given the exam can help the remaining by sharing their experiences.

Hello All,
 
I took the exam yest. It tests all the concepts. Time is 2.5 hrs. There were 18 quest in all of which first 3 were necessary and of rest 12 any 3 needs to be done. It took 45 mins for me to understand the remote systems itself, suggestion is to keep track of time. The system is bit buggy and need to use "NET STOP MYSQL" and "NET START MYSQL" several times.
 
The questions were as follows:
 
NEcessary quest:
1. Add, delete users. Give grants to users.
2. Take dumps of tables and db's. Populate db from csv file. (be careful while taking dump, if a dump is taken and it doesnot happen for some reason, then the file will be locked by OS and u cant even delete it)
3. Oprtimise queries.
For optional ques:
 
There are 12 of optional quest and most of them are easy which consists of all the chapters from book like repair tables, partation tables, create views etc.
 
Hope this info helps, have the book beside and google will be accessible.... :)
 
All the best,
 
Regards,
Rohit
