I’ ve never used phpmyadmin. Today I was given a database in MYSQL, I know how to open phpmyadmin and access to some data, but I’ ve no idea in how to visualize the data, I mean How can I open the database using Internet explorer and see the design of it???(and navigate across the tables, forms, etc…)
You may consider installing MySQL Workbench. It has a modeling tool that lets you reverse engineer your database. It even has a wizard that will walk you through the process.
After reverse engineering it lays out your tables and foriegn key links (if using INNODB) on a grid, you can see how your data relates.
