go to the command prompt and use mysql or mysqladmin I get "access deniged for user "@localhost". No "root" or anything like that. I don't know where I screwed up, but I obviously screwed up something. Any ideas out there on how I can get back in control of this situation?
Shutdown mysqld, and restart mysqld with the --skip-grant-tables option. Now you will be able to connect as root without specifying a password.
Once you've connected, give the command "flush privileges" to make Mysql start using the grant tables.
Then you can add or edit records in the mysql.user table.
