Author How to use myphpadmin

Hello,
I am looking around for some really basic tutorial on how to use myphpadmin.
I found some stuff at the php.net but this was more like about connecting to
the server and stuff. I know that this stuff is a database stuff and is
generated from various programs but I want examples on how to use the
spreedsheets. If anyone has some info can they point me to the right
location.
thanks

spreedsheets?

I would start with reading a bit about the database you are using (MySQL?).
It's hard to administer something you have no clue about.

Forging a path through the Usenet jungle, armed only with a rusty

ok - Allis pointed you at the documentation, but really there ain't much
to using it once it's installed and configured.

Which you need to know if you're going to write and/or install/configure
applications that use PHP with MySQL.

As john indicated, spreadsheets are not databases and vice versa.

Do you have a specific issue?

Just click on the database in the left frame,

click on the tablerows box (the spreadsheet button) to peek at the data
for any table.

click edit, delete to change it, (a row at a time).

Go back to step 1.

It's really EASY to fiddle with the data, the only trick is where you
see this..

SELECT * FROM MYTABLE WHERE 1
[GO]

That means "peek at the data", but the best way is after you've peeked
at 1 table is to go back to the left frame again and start over, then
you just have a single click on the spreadsheet button each time. (its
a feature packed but slightly shoddy interface).

Manipulating the data is all you need to know if you are installing a
script. Programming a script and *setting up tables* is much more
involved.

Just run your script with some dummy clients entered in and then dive
into PHPMyAdmin and check out where the records go!
