George Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 Re: Forum Please one word. I've downloaded MySQL server & xampp on a windows 8 computer. I am new to PHP and MySQL. Creating the first database in chapter 4. Mid way through I notice a typo and exited command prompt. When resuming back in command prompt the database was already saved and could not move forward. I would like to delete the database and try again. Can't figure how. Looking on the web. Some information takes me to database program php my admin to delete the file while other tutorials deleting through the MySQL command prompt interface. All and all this being if I am going about this right. In any regard if someone can please provide me with a tutorial to delete the saved file. Thank you George.

Larry Posted October 28, 2013 Share Posted October 28, 2013 You'd run the command DROP DATABASE ; But you could also just create a new database and use that one instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
