Hello,
What's the best way for me to back-up my mysql development that I do on
my laptop?

Regards, Mike


config:
mysql Ver 14.12 Distrib 5.0.22, for Win32 (ia32)

phpMyAdmin-2.8.1

PHP 5.1.4 (cli) (built: May 4 2006 10:35:22)

I don't know about the best way, but phpMyAdmin has a convenient
"Export" feature for your whole database which gives you a text file
with all the statements needed to completely reconstruct your database.
Then you just back up this single file, easy as .
