Hi. I am the only user of MySQL in a Win98 environment. I am developing an ASP front end to access the database to add, update and delete records in the database for a Church. I am having problems with the connection to the database. I am able to connect to the database and print out the fields in a table with no difficulty. However, I am not able to add any records let alone delete or update records through the front end.
I believe my difficulty lies in the need to: grant select, insert, delete, create, drop on database.* to person@localhost identified by 'password'; The problem is in order to do this as per the manual I have to get the shell> prompt which I so far have not be able to do so that I can issue the following command: mysql --user = root mysql and then issue the grant command. Could someone please tell me how to get to the shell> prompt in a windows environment? I recognize shell> from my limited exposure to UNIX, but am not familiar with it in windows. I need to know which directory to go to do the required tasks. I have no problems getting into \mysql\bin to create databases and tables. Thank-you for any help.
