A Beginner's Query
Hi All Actually I am Oracle Prgrammer novice to mysql We have installed Linux RH 6.2 in which we have installd mysql. Now he want me to create 3 tables in that. He has given me mysql prompt. However I dont know how exactly to go further. When I issue a select statement it says you have to connect to database Now I even dont know what are databases here and how to create a new database. I have downloaded the documentation but doesnt show how to go ahead. if I say create table ... after it says query processed . But how to view the structure of the table. I mean I am not able to do anything even after mysql prompt appears. I have the documentation. Can Anyone guide me on this Amol _ Chat with your friends as soon as they come online.

query processed . But how to view the structure of the table. I mean I am not able to do anything even after mysql prompt appears. I have the documentation. Can Anyone guide me on this I could write it all, I'm sure many on this list can. It's pretty useless though.. Checkout the manual at www.mysql.com if you did move over to www.devshed.com and go to the MySQL section.. Follow some links from the MySQL manual on www.mysql.com Next, go to a bookstore and buy the book MySQL from Paul DuBois.. this should help you.. Please, before posting: checkout the archive.. many many many questions are found there, with answers.
