I'm not sure about option 2, but I think it should work.

Hi guys
Its the same program, just Improved :-)
People hate things they do not understand.
You're probably right, and if I had memorized all the commands to be able to
edit text, and had gotten used to it, I may like it. I've just gotten used
to free-format editing w/o having to enter any commands
I'm trying to determine the best way to back up my MySQL databases in such a
way that they can be easily restored, flexible, and complete. I've
experimented with physically copying the files (with disastrous results).
MySQLDump seems to be the way to go, but I've got two problems with that

Ok never heard of multiedit... if your system is

Thanks, these did the trick, and it's put my procedures and triggers into
the back up file. However, it has commented them out so that they will not
be created if I do a restore to a new database. Not sure why...

I personally use VIM and

You might want to try out MySQL Administrator which can often be used to

There's GVIM for Windows, its the same program of Linux, I use it when
there's no way but using Windows. Get it at www.vim.org ! Its a blast
having the same (powerful, easy, fast and reliable) tool in windows
