I looked around a bit but couldn't find anything..I downloaded 3.23.53 and started following directions on a post here..it said go to database tab and rightclick hostname and add a database..Hostname is my ISP? I right clicked that and it didn't have anything about adding a data base..all option were about flushing. Right clicked all over aroudn that page and didn't see anything about creating database..what am I missing?

start the mysql server, open the console (mysql.exe)

and type "create database eq;"

then continue running the .sql files

probably need to set privileges too (see www.mysql.com for further instructions)

then you definitly looked in the wrong places:

documentation is for free, and its well done

http://www.mysql.com/documentation/mysql/bychapter/

perhaps we should link this in the readme and/or faq
