alter table errors from mysql

[wxdqz]

Hi I am having problems with a script I wrote awhile ago but now is popping up errors when it gets to altering a table.

I checked the user priv for this user and then do have Alter_priv in the mysql.user table.

before it runs i have it print out the sql statement so i try just copying that and typing that in the mysql client and it runs fine.

thanks for any help
