Hi: I have the following python code: import os os.system("mysqldump -u root -pPASSWORD --opt spreadsheets > dump.sql") This nicely creates the file...but the file is empty! The database exists and has lots of data, I double-checked it. If there is nothing wrong with my code, is there some way to do the same thing from within MySQL? Can I at least print everything to screen and copy it? Where would I find my database in Windoze? TIA, Victor
