The "shell" is the interactive terminal program, mysql. For Windows, if MySQL was installed in C:\mysql, start the Command Prompt from Accessories, change to C:\mysql, and type "mysql". In Unix, including Linux, BreeBSD and Mac OS X, mysql ought to be in your path, which means you should just be able to start a terminal application and type "mysql" to begin. - Jim ----- James Cradock, [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
