Hi all, I am on... wait for it... version 4.0.25 and I want to upgrade to MySQL 5.x

Is there anything special I should do in order to upgrade? Do I need to uninstall v4 or can I just download the most current version and double click to upgrade? I am not particularly hardcore mysql minded, and quite honestly, if it ain't broke don't fix it is a good mantra of mine... but I need to move on now as I have received an sql file that is v5 compatible but not v4 compatible.

Once I have it up and running I'll be fine, it's just that I am nervous about upgrading and consequently breaking it, and at that point, I'll be struggling to put it right.

Any advice on how I can best do this / best practices etc will be very much appreciated.

Many thanks.

Mat
