:hr:  
I installed MYSQL 4.0x on my local machine and set the username on MYSQL Admin to a name other then root.

Now, when I launch mysql.exe I can’t get to the shell prompt and I only have access rights to work with the test database. I can’t create a new database with code like:

CREATE DATABASE ironworks;

The reults are: Error 1044 Access Denied.

Any ideas appreciated.
