Great work Drawde! I'll check this out ASAP.
BTW, you got your slashes mixed up in the links you gave above.

dangerdan30: To back up/restore your old database, do the following:
Code:
Go to the mysql\bin directory from a command prompt window.
Type mysqldump <put your database name here> > somefilenameyoulike.SQL
Example. If my database was named eq and the file I wanted it put in was eqbackup.sql - I would type:
mysqldump eq > eqbackup.sql
(note:check the file and make sure the contents are there and not some error text).
To restore it, you would go into a mysql prompt.
Drop your existing database with: drop database <yourdatabasename>;
Create the database again: create database <yourdatabasename>;
and then source the database with your file...
use <yourdatabasename>;
source <path to somenameyoulike.sql>somenameyoulike.sql
