Failed to open file

I get the error failed to open file and then the filename.. wondering how do I get the file to open / where do I stick files to open them.

trying to create the database from script file: source create_dd_database.sql;

also tried: source \. mysql\create_dd_database.sql;

the file is currently in c:\mysql

I don't get how to specify for it to look in the c:\mysql directory for the create_dd_database.sql file... if someone could give me the exact command to use i'd appreciate it.

Try to put the source file in your c:\mysql\bin directory, or just use:

source c:\mysql\create_dd_....
or
source c:\create_dd_...
