Instantrails users - May 2006 - MySQL-Front question

I''ve been going through the tutorial here:
http://instantrails.rubyforge.org/tutorial/index.html

About a third of the way down, right under figure 23 there''s a section
on ''Adding Recipe Fields''.  I just completed creating a
recipes table and the Primary Index and auto_incrementing id have been made.

The thing that''s baffling me, is that my results are not exactly like
what''s shown in figure 24.  More specifically, the null field should be
set to no, while mine shows up set to yes.  I right-mouse click to check on the
properties of id, and the default section is disabled and only the Auto
Increment field is checked.  So, why does is the null property showing up as
allowed?

I tried click off auto_increment and look at it again, the null turns to no, but
when I turn the auto_increment back, it turns null back to yes.  Very strange!

Any ideas?

Thanks!

You are running a newer version of MySQL-Front than the one used to create
those screenshots. the stuff you are seeing are some of the behaviors that
they have changed.
