I don't know what the file limit would be where phpMyAdmin would not be the best tool for the job. Does the command you have there create the database and then import a .sql file into the database directly, if the sql file has all the necessary queries to create the tables and table structures? Or would you have to first create the database and then run the command? Since I am working on a windows computer, I am going to experiment with this command and see what I come up with. Thanks again for the tips. I do need to get my act together and install phpMyAdmin, even though I really like the command line too!!

This is a great tutorial! I know a lot of people will have to use phpMyAdmin for importing an SQL file. To do so, you would log into your phpMyAdmin interface, select the database you wish to import the SQL file into, select "IMPORT" from the menu options, and either paste the SQL statements or upload your SQL file and run it as so. Also, there's the Linux folk (like me) who would run the command from the terminal: mysql -u username -ppassword db_name Wow Mary! This is a great tutorial!
