..but I'm having a little difficulty getting started.
I have created a database called 'firstdatabase', am I right in thinking
that if I create a file table.msql containing
 CREATE TABLE emp_details(
                first_name char(15) not null,
                last_name char(15) not null,
                emp_id int primary key
        )

and then type
msql firstdatabase < table.msql
it will add the table, as I did relshow and it hasn't.
It returns:

Welcome to the miniSQL monitor. Type \h for help.

mSQL > -> -> -> -> -> -> ->
Bye!

and does nothing else.
What haven't I done?

Ally.
