I don't know. It's definitely an error.

One way is to use the mysql client, the standard console based program 
following all mysql distributions. It is used to send SQL commands to 
the server, so you would have to use the SQL language, in this case I 
guess the UPDATE statement:

There are many GUI alternatives, you don't have to use "MySQL 
Administrator". phpMyAdmin and SQLYog are two web-based alternatives.

Or you could use your favourite programming language. Download an API 
from <URL: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/ > and write a program that 
edits your table data.
