While connected to MySQL, issue the following instruction:
    GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES to 'YourChoosesUsername'@'%' ON `database`

I don't remember exactly the syntax, but I think this should work. It means,
you giving all the permissions to the user YourChoosenUsername and you are
allowing him/her to connect from any computer (even the Internet if
applicable) on just the database `database`


Thanks
Emery
