Hello,
I wants to copy a full database with all its information to a database on another 
computer.

Is it really that simple that I just create a new db on the new system and then copy 
the files from the old db directory into the newly created one?
cheers Alex



A safer solution is to use mysqldump - this dumps the contents of your database and the data structure as SQL queries, and then you can just treat the dumped file as a batch file when recreating.
