        It sounds to me like you are not running the server component for
mSQL.

        The basic order of operation would be:

        1- Open a Dos-Prompt window.
        2- CD to the c:\msql\bin\ directory.
        3- run "msql2d.exe" from this command line.
        4- This will then tie up this dos-prompt window for as long as the
server is running.

        5- Open a second Dos-Prompt window.
        6- CD to the C:\msql\bin\ directory.
        7- Run msqladmin create Database1 command.

        Everything should run normally when doing this.
