OK - fair enough - two questions though.


Can I just hand delete the records that I manually inserted?


What is the syntax of the grant?


I log on as the root to the MySQL db and then I want to grant a user "root" 
password, "new_password" all possible privilges from a machine with
ip_address 
of xx.yy.zz.aa and all of this on a database called "bugs".

Grant all to root on bugs?


Thanks for the help so far.
