What host are you guys using? I've been told recently by Interland Support that
you cannot login to MySQL on their servers using Dreamweaver . . . If anyone
had Dreamweaver and has done this with Interland, I sure would love to know
about it . . .

Tech support at Interland was wrong -

I've connected to MySQL database through Dreamweaver. I had the path wrong
when I created a new database connection in Dreamweaver. I logged on to MySQL
database by going to:

[url]www.(mydomain).com/mysqladmin[/url]

I entered my login and password and phpMyAdmin came up.
I created a new database called, for example, stupid_rookie
I clicked the SQL tab, and near the bottom of the page, clicked the Choose
File button to browse to my .sql file
Hit okay and the database populated.

I then went to Dreamweaver, opened a file, (at least one file must be open
before you can create a connection to MySQL.
In the Databases tab, click the + button and choose MySQL Connection to create
a new connection to MySQL.
Give the connection a name
MySQL server: (This is where I screwed up my path - since I was developing
remotely, I thought I needed a www. path . . not so! ) If everything resides on
the remote server, then you put in "localhost"
So it reads:

Connection Name: (your connection name)
MySQL server: localhost
User name: (your password - if you dont' know, try "root" as a user name.
Password: (your password - if you don't know, try leaving it blank)
Database: (the name you gave the database).

This got me up and connected and grinning like a mule eating briars . . .

Again: the book, "Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004 with asp, coldfusion, and
php" by Jeffrey Bardzell is a MUST READ for non-technical types like myself . .
.. :D
