I'm totally new to mysql so I may be asking a real dumb question here.

Does anyone know whether the running of mysql_install_db necessary for the 
Windows distribution of mysql?  I downloaded the binary 
mysql-3.23.43-win.zip file yesterday and ran the setup.  However, there is 
no mysql_install_db installed (as described in the Technical Reference 
Manual.

Is this still necessary?  Also, is this what installs a test/sample 
database?

Thanks in advance,

Wilson
