Hello clm314159,

Welcome to the Monastery. Well the fellow Monks have pointed you to the right direction and you have resolved your problem. Since you have not worked with MySQL for some time I thought that maybe you are interested in some basic common functions e.g. create table, insert, retrieve etc.

Take a look on a simple reply that I had posted in the past Re^7: extract column data. This is not a tutorial but it isa a small compiling example with the basics. I believe this can get you started.

Hope this helps, BR.
