You should install something like phpMyAdmin, which is a web based admin
tool for MySQL... among it's MANY awesome features (create & modify tables
and databases, perform queries, all in a GUI way), it has the ability to
save dumps of the database or table structure, and/or the database/table
data.

It's fantastic for back-ups etc etc.

I cannot recommend this (free/opensource) tool enough.


Basicaly, you do a dump from phpMyAdmin on your local system as an .sql
file, then use the dump to create/update your "live" data through another
copy of phpMyAdmin on your live system.

Couldn't be easier.
