Thank you for a reasonable feature request. Tables have "version" information embedded: mysql> create table tvisam(c1 int) engine=MyISAM; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.01 sec) mysql> create table tvinno(c1 int) engine=InnoDB; Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.05 sec) mysql> show table status like 'tvi%'\G *************************** 1. row *************************** Name: tvinno Engine: InnoDB Version: 10 Row_format: Compact Rows: 0 Avg_row_length: 0 Data_length: 16384 Max_data_length: 0 Index_length: 0 Data_free: 0 Auto_increment: NULL Create_time: 2006-07-14 12:40:50 Update_time: NULL Check_time: NULL Collation: latin1_swedish_ci Checksum: NULL Create_options: Comment: InnoDB free: 461824 kB *************************** 2. row *************************** Name: tvisam Engine: MyISAM Version: 10 Row_format: Fixed Rows: 0 Avg_row_length: 0 Data_length: 0 Max_data_length: 1970324836974591 Index_length: 1024 Data_free: 0 Auto_increment: NULL Create_time: 2006-07-14 12:40:47 Update_time: 2006-07-14 12:40:47 Check_time: NULL Collation: latin1_swedish_ci Checksum: NULL Create_options: Comment: 2 rows in set (0.01 sec) But it will be really useful to know exact MySQL server version used to create that tables, as this "version 10" may be not enough to upgrade properly.

Thank you for this bug report, but I don't see what specific user functionality is requested. Please, what is the scenario that causes the problem? Do you have a test case? Suggestions to have versions in data files is a bit too general -- we have plenty of data files and formats (different storage engines, metadata files, etc), and while most of them do store server or format version, some might not.
