Do you have a database you want to create that table in? You can use the test database if you are just testing. In that case you do: mysql> USE test
If you want to create your own database: mysql> CREATE DATABASE database_name mysql> USE database_name And then continue your queries. This means, you need to tell MySQL the database your queris should run on. Hope this helps Thanks Emery ----- Original Message ----- From: "Charlie Brewer" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, September 25, 2003 21:12 Subject: Noob Question: Error 1046 Evenin', Sorry to send noob questions, I know how annoying they can be, but we need help too ;) Anyways, Im using a self teach book to teach myself PHP, MySQL and Apache. The book is getting into MySQL and basic commands. Anyways, they gave an example, and I typed it in as shown in the book, but I get an error. I took a screenshot (I thought that would be easier) and posted it here: http://hostultra.org/brewer/mysql.jpg Any help would be very much so appreciated, thanks. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
