Dear Ben,

there is no need for two separate .sql files (maybe there *is* a need,
you will know ;-)

To dump structures from one database, all tables and all data included,
and with "drop table" so you can restore overwriting existing tables:

    mysqldump my_db --add-drop-table > my_db.sql

To restore:

    mysql < my_db.sql my_db

You may have to enter username and password, in this case:

    mysqldump -u username -p my_db --add-drop-table > my_db.sql

and

    mysql -u username -p < my_db.sql my_db

For a dump of all databases:

    mysqldump --all-databases ... etc.

See http://www.mysql.com/doc/m/y/mysqldump.html for details.

Regards,
