Hi all,

First of all I am new at mySQL i just started today unfortunately I was assigned to do something that requires me to do some backing up at mySQL for windows. Now I just want to know how to back up a database at mySQL.


Thanks and have a nice day
JJ

try....


failing that you could use MySQL Adminstrator

you could use other tools such as PHPMyAdmin, or other tools mentioned in the MySQL manual

Hi,

How can i go from
mysql>
to
shell>

thanks,
jj

shell is the equivalent of command line

in the windows world start | run | command OR select the command prompt icon

in the Linux world the there will be either an icon labeled shell

in either event you will then need to navigate to where the files are.. no easy matter

I'd strongly reccommend that you use MySQL Adminsitrator or PHPMyAdmin in preference to going to the command line
