You could download and install phpMyAdmin from http://phpwizard.net - that is a web-based mysql admin tool.

Thanks man I installed it, no the install says;


At the prompt, type mysql -u root -pyourpassword forum


you will be presented with a mysql> prompt


type ALTER TABLE post ADD COLUMN dept VARCHAR(255);


you will be presented with a mysql> prompt again


type ALTER TABLE post ADD COLUMN category VARCHAR(50);


type quit


But in the my admin page, I select POST and I get a few tables with numbers and words, then a bunch of NO TEXT LABLED boxes, buttons, ect at the bottom, how do I install this info into there? Can somone take 2 seconds to help me? My ICQ is in my sig, thanks! (oh, and im online)
