How to restore

[renfrompenn]

After I save the files in phpmyadmin, how do I go about restoring them if need be?

I assume you saved them as a .sql file.
You would create a new database, and then click on SQL and cut and paste the contents of that file into the box and hit enter.

I've never created a new database.... all I've ever done is simply drop the current table-set, then browse to the .sql file and let it reestablish the tables and data.
