Bonnie,

	You can learn a great deal about MySQL simply by installing an 
easy-to-use MySQL client. SQLyog is such a client, and it is _free_, 
although not OSS. A favorite among software developers is Aqua Data 
Studio (ADS), which is a DB design tool as well as a RDBMS client. Both 
SQLyog and ADS have slick GUI's. A third option is MySQL Navigator.

	All of these tools can save you a great deal of time and frustration 
when learning MySQL.
