Both were very easy to find in the online documentation. You might also look in to a good book such as 'Managing & Using MySQL' (http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/msql2/). Good luck.

Anyways, can anybody point me in the right directory for what I have to do? I've searched the MYSQL docs and cannot find anything to do with that.
