www.mysql.com is a really good place to start.

 and what are the different between MySQL and other commerce relative 
 database?As what I known,My SQL is free,but other commerce RDB is very

MySQL is free for many--but not all--uses (check the license at 
www.mysql.com).
MySQL has most of the features you'll need but is still missing some 
biggies (sub-queries, triggers, etc.). Some of these features will be 
implemented in forthcoming versions of the software. Read more about 
this at www.mysql.com.
MySQL is pretty easy to use. Read the tutorial that comes with the 
manual at www.mysql.com.

   MySQL can help me do what or not?

Well, you haven't said what you want to do but I suspect MySQL can 
help. Why don't you head over to www.mysql.com to get a better feel for 
it?

Best wishes,
Larry

PS There are many books on MySQL available, should you be interested, 
as well as numerous mailing lists dedicated to MySQL. You can find out 
more about these at (you guessed it) www.mysql.com.
