Your question is constructed in way making it difficult to read, but I have 1 thing for you.

"table" is a reserved word in MySQL. You should not name a colulmn "table". You can use reserved words, but in your queries, you'll have to put brackets around the reserved word like this:
[PHP]
$sql = "UPDATE Catalog SET [Table] = 'Harrow_VH' WHERE Name = 'Variable Action Harrow'";
[/PHP]
But do yourself a favor, do not name any objects in your database using any of the reserved words.
