Since I like my hard drive more tidy than my house, I've put MySQL in
C:\Program Files\MySQL.
This means that I currently have to start MySQL using a .bat file, since the
mysql-daemon won't find the MySQL-directory if I install it as a Service:

--- MySQL.bat ---
cd C:\Program Files\MySQL\bin

mysqld --basedir="C:\Program Files\MySQL"
------

The .bat file is put in the Startup-folder, but this means that when Win2k
Professional has booted, I end up with a command-window on my desktop, which I'll
have to manually close.
Can anyone think of a bit more smooth way to get it all going?
