Have you switched to MySQL Workbench?

Post by flying_circus »

I've been using MySQL Administrator and Query Browser for years. You can still find them on the mysql site, but they are recommending that users begin switching to MySQL Workbench.

For the life of me, I cannot figure out how to use the new tool! Can anyone offer any insight on a simple way to manager users and their permissions, and create / backup / restore schema's from within the new tool?

Oh jeez, Is that why I'm pulling my hair out?

I'll have a look at the beta version. I just grabbed to first download I saw on their site, after formatting last week.

Thanks. :)
