Hi,

	This may be a stupid question but can I still just ask it?

	Why do you want to disable the use of InnoDB tables? If you don't
use it, couldn't the files still be there? It's not like it's a security
risk (or is it?) or that it takes up lots of space? (maybe this is true as
well?)

	I'm just starting out and my innoDB files are small.

Cheers,
Mun Heng, Ow
