I have a website that has an existing SQL database. I need to make this work with a godaddy hosting account. I have uploaded all the files....GD says I need to build a DB and match the tables to the existing...then use some kind of remote SQL manager to upload....Does this make sense to any of you SQL GURU's? I would be willing to pay someone who knows what they are doing!
You should consider your DB's structure and go to GD and build table that have same columns as your DB's structure. It won't be problem.
I believe if your existing database is MySql and if GoDaddy is also offering MySql then from cPanel you can take backup of your mysql database and directly import it in it won't take much time that way and might require less knowledge of SQL as well
