Very simple question about mysql
 

I am learning mysql for the first time, I learned some commands but where do I type them, the book I have doesnot tell. Is it in the command promt of windows or I can use a GUI for that ??? :confused:

Have a look at the ads above your post ;)

There is a program called "mysql" (mysql.exe for windows) where you can directly enter SQL commands. But since you posted in the php forums:
mysql_connect()
mysql_select_db();
mysql_query();
mysql_fetch_row();

HTH,

The MySQL daemon should be running... then type mysql at the prompt. Type your commands here or through a GUI frontend like "MySQL Control Center" or "PhpAdmin"

Thanks a lot, the problem has been solved
