I tried downloading mysql for one of the mirrior sites but I keep getting the same error message C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\AUTOEXEC.NT. This system file is not suitabe for running MS-DOS and Microsoft Windows appilcations. Choose 'Close' to terminate the program I am running Windows XP. If anyone has had this problem or knows how to fix it please contact me. Thankyou

There's also Xamp which does much the same thing. I think if you're going to use mySQL then you're going to need PHP and Apache anyway so you might as well get them all in one go! PHP myadmin is a very easy way to administrate dbs - although it was sort of fun doing the whole command line thing - 'cept when you make a spelling mistake halfway through the thing and have to start again. _____________________________ "My strategy is so simple an idiot could have devised it" Little Blue Plane Web Design \| Blood, Sweat & Rust - A Land Rover restoration project (in reply to ou812)

There is however a Windows install routine available here _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to Tailslide)
