First I need to set up MySql

I downloaded mysql-installer-community-5.6.22.0 from the MySql web site and I ran it to install it. I checked the option to install everything. I do not know where to begin?

I have installed mysql on a WIndows 7 PC. My goal is to create a simple database with maybe a couple of tables with a few fields. Then, I want to link to this local database with a java program.

The MySql command line client appears in my start menu; and I have a MySql menu folder on my sustem with the following items:

MySql Workbench 6.2 CE
MySql Connector Net 6.95
MySql for Visual Studio 1.2.3
MySql Installer - Community
MySql Notifier 1.1.6
MySql Server 5.6
MySql Utilities

I do not know where to begin. I thought the workbench would provide a way to easily start creating a database and tables, but I did not find it.

The online documentation provided some API references but I did not see any tutorials.

Please help. I will be satisfied with just creating one with the command line tool if necessary.

If all ok and server running , install HeidiSQL and then you should be able to connect to db on port 3306 using your pwd and uid
