they should be in your your mysql folder
then go to data folder
ie if you are using XAMPP
go to xampp folder then mysql folder then data folder

The exact location is stored in my.ini which exists under main mysql installation directory. In my.ini file, look for 'datadir'. This parameter points the data folder. You can change the path for data files to store databases to location of your choice.

That is what happens...I'm suspicious of the accent characters in the code but I am not sure if there's any truth to my suspicion and how I'd even test or fix it(?)

Normally I would do this by hand, but I am wondering if there are any code libraries out there that could generate the SQL for me. Basically I would have a list of column names and types. I know I could just foreach() through the list, with a switch to...

Hi, I am new to MySql and I want to practice querying by playing around a relatively large and complex database without having to enter all the data myself. Is there a publicly available MySql database on the internet which I could download? (the "world" database on the MySql website is really to simple to be useful). Of course, it would be even more pleasant if this database contained some interesting data. Many thanks in advance,

I was wondering how it may be possible to query 2 MySQL databases using one query statement from PHP. For instance: SELECT database1.tableA.field1 UNION database2.tableB.field2. My concern is, when connecting to MySQL (or sending a query), I only specify 1 database connection resource ID. How does that play out when connecting to 2 databases?
