>How do I fix this?
You cannot simply fix that. The Length Attribut of Integer Variables does not effect the internal storage (the storage of standard INT is a binary 4-byte integer range between -2147483648 and 2147483647, SMALLINT uses 2-bytes range between -32768 and 32767, TINYINT is 1-byte range between -127 and 127), but only the representation in print layouts.
If you like to limit the Age to 99, you must either write a little check routine in the corresponding script (PHP?), which checks the value before inserting it, or you must create a trigger which sets the Age to 99 for the new inserted record, if Age is greater than 99.
Example:
- Code: Select all
CREATE TRIGGER age_check AFTER INSERT ON mytable
FOR EACH ROW SET NEW.Age = LEAST(NEW.Age,99);
