+\fBmysql_find_rows [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB] [\fR\fB\fIfile_name\fR\fR\fB ...]\fR
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBmysql_find_rows\fR
+reads files containing SQL statements and extracts statements that match a given regular expression or that contain
+USE \fIdb_name\fR
+or
+SET
+statements. The utility was written for use with update log files (as used prior to MySQL 5.0) and as such expects statements to be terminated with semicolon (;) characters. It may be useful with other files that contain SQL statements as long as statements are terminated with semicolons.
+.PP

+.RS 3n
+.nf
+shell> \fBmysql_find_rows [\fR\fB\fIoptions\fR\fR\fB] [\fR\fB\fIfile_name\fR\fR\fB ...]\fR
+.fi
+.RE
