(replace username/password with your winmysqladmin username//password)

Press Enter....type:

Code:
create database eq;


Press Enter....type:

Code:
use eq;


Press Enter....type:

Code:
source MW055_alpha_02.sql;


Lots of stuff should fly by with no errors. Type:

Code:
quit

Right before this line:
just open up a dos command and type the following THEN type the above line.... NOTE that some of that has to be in caps...
I am not sure what you mean by but if you did this right you should be set up with an EQEMu DB...

This is where i am lost.. how do i run that file.. i said run ms-das and type that in well what exaclly do u mean and how to i made it change that file.. im feeling really dumb about now so cause u just type like "save it as this and then go here open it with this and type withis kinda deal kinda like a fast walkthough" that help any ^^

I see what you are saying... You will need to either include this in your .bat file:
OR you will need to run this .bat file while in a dos window (by saying you will need to run this, that means you will need to locate the file from the dos window <ie.. type in cd c:/saved files/mysql.bat. if that is the location of the file> and run it by typing in its name) The best thing to do if you are to keep use this method is to put the file in c:/documents and settings/your username (assuming you are running windowsxp). What this does is, when you first open your dos window, you can simply type in mysql.bat and it will take you right into mysql and ready for you to enter information... The file is doing what you told it to do when you run it, but it is NOT staying open for you to type anything because you DIDNT tell it to keep a dos command window open....

So either have dos window already running, or include the dos command window included in your .bat file... Hope this clarifies it for you....
