try using phpmyadmin. you can export ur tables easily. it will store the data as a series of sql insert statements.
and if u want to restore them, you can just run the exported file. it stores the structure and the sql queries. make sure this method suits you. This is a safe method as your mysql data can then be not only be restored onto the original platform but also it can be restored to any platform running mysql.
