Well I go in there and all I can see is a bunch of qeynos spawns and there id's. It does not seem to show the actual names of the mobs, and I have like 30 custom mobs in freportw and no clue where each of there ID's are. I also can't seem to actually change between zones on there. I click the zone icon at the top and it goes to acrylia caverns, click it again and it jumps to western wastes. Don't see how to tell it to go to whichever zone you want it to go to, and even if I did I wouldn't know the spawn id's of the mobs I made anyways.

With an SQL query, you can select exactly the fields you want. For example:
select name, level
from npc_types
where name like '%orc%'
There is a redickerous amount of SQL tutorials, from mundane to arcane, all over the web. Google for them.
If you're adding NPC's, you'll have to edit more than just the spawn2 table. Here's (what I feel, and how I learned) a good link (and it even explains the tables in detail, so you'll learn how it works instead of just going through the motions):

Remember that this is not a product. It's a public project. The information you'll need it is not organized neatly into a compendium. To get started, you're going to have to work at it, tear your hair out, search through posts, slog through flames, and learn to separate the bull from the bullshit.
But you'll feel better about yourself and be a bit knowledgeable about EQ and computers in general once you get through it.
