how do I create a mysql db on xp localhost?

I have always just used Access. I can't for the life of me figure out how to 
create a mysql database, and can't find any coherent explanation anywhere, 
which amazes me.

I have installed 5.0. It is running. Now what?

I installed the mysql administrator. I open it and it says:

"stored connection" - what does that mean???
server host - maybe localhost???
username - no idea???
etc.

No idea what to do there to create a db.

I search on the internet and everything is about using a webhost's panel to 
create it, or phpadmin, or a shell command which I am not familiar with though 
have tried typing into the "run" box but which always says "can't find "mysql"" 
or something.

So how exactly do I create a mysql db???

After that, how to create the tables?

And then how do I upload it to my website? 

I also want to convert an Access db to mysql and can't figure out how to do 
that either.

I really have no idea about this area. When replying, imagine explaining this 
to your 4-year old daughter.

Thanks.
