Chris, I was under the impression that the mysql database had as default user when installed: .............. anonymous root ................ And that the _anonymous_ user could only create a database that began with the word - test. Using the following commands: ........................... C:\WINDOWS\cd c:\mysql\bin C:\mysql-shareware --standalone C:\mysql\bin>mysqladmin CREATE houses Database houses created C:\mysql\bin>mysql Welcome to the mysql monitor... mysql>USE houses Database changed ........................ As it is, I'm reading Meloni's tutorial on mysql/PHP so the question might also apply to others in this PHP ng. Anyway, the database "houses" was created _without_ the word "test" as the anonymous user. Why is this?
