Now I enter c:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\bin\createdb mydb;
PG asks me password
Is the password as superadmin's password or postgre's password what I set when postgresql installed in windows
I try both, but does not work" user administrator password fail"
so How to log on as superadmin.

I install PostgreSQL 8.3.3 in Windows XP, and set Path environment viarable to C:\Program Files\PostgreSQL\8.3\bin, when I enter "create database mydb;" it successed, however when "createdb mydb;" told me syntax error. Dose the Path set wrong or I need to set other viarables?
createdb is just a wrapper program that sends a "create database..." command to the server, so you need to run it from the Windows command-line.
