Dear mysql

 

I have just downloaded mysql 3.23 for Windows and I am running XP.

 

I have started the service ok and create a database.  I thought I had
set my database password ok.  I have been using the book 'Teach Yourself
MySQL in 21 days' by SAMS (Mark Maslakowski).

 

When I try the statement 

 

bin\mysqladmin -p CREATE sample_db

 

the command asks for a password.  I type in the one I set and the system
says 

 

mysqladmin: connect to server at 'local host' failed

error: 'Access denied for user: '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' (Using password: YES)'

 

Does it appear that I need to install an ODBC driver?

 

Your help is appreciated.

 

Yours Sincerely
