Select all columns except one in MySQL?

Question

I\'m trying to use a select statement to get all of the columns from a certain MySQL table except one. Is there a simple way to do this?

EDIT: There are 53 columns i

Answer 1

It is good practice to specify the columns that you are querying even if you query all the columns.

So I would suggest you write the name of each column in the statement (excluding the one you don't want).

SELECT
    col1
    , col2
    , col3
    , col..
    , col53

FROM table
