    I don't know much about the SQL side of my site, but need to run a .sql file in order to add a contribution to my osCommerce based site.

    Problem is that I don't have the first clue on how to do this.

    Can anyone help?

    Thanks!

    Get into phpmyadmin and select the database that your trying to modify. Select the sql tab and paste the sql query into the window. Hit go.

    Theres also a way to browse to a file and run it but I can't remember it at the moment.

    I figured it was probably something very simple, I just didn't know how to do it!

    Worked like a charm - thanks suzigeek!
