I've mooched enough on this board i thought I'd try to help a bit.

I tried that Grant Option command an insane number of times and never got it to work. Found something buried in another section of this site that said not use *.* but rather databasename.* where databasename is your sql database. Mine would be eq.*

This worked instantly and everything worked until the server login 1017ed me. That's as far as I've gotten but I thought I'd try to help in case someone else was having a similar problem.
