Ok, I determined that innodb wasn't being initialized because I didn't have
"innodb_data_file_path" set in "my.ini".  I added the following line to
"my.ini" in mysqladmin:

    innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:30M:autoextend

After I restarted the service and created some tables (not adding any rows yet), I 
noticed the following files in the data"
subdirectory:

---------------
total 41004
drwxr-xr-x    2 dmkarr   None         8192 Jul  1 15:01 mysql/
-rw-r--r--    1 dmkarr   None         2461 Jul  1 14:59 mysql.err

drwxr-xr-x    2 dmkarr   None            0 Jun 29 11:07 test/

However, I don't know how to check the log files for those strings, as they
appear to be binary.  A simple grep didn't find anything.  Is there a special
viewer for mysql log files?
