Thanks Doc, I'll look into that.

One LAST questions. The MySQL implementation I've had thrust upon me also mixes in the phpMyAdmin tables (they start with pma_).

I would think it better to not be backing up/restoring these. From reading the mysqldump manual, I don't see a wild card option so I can backup tables starting with "zen_*" ...

If this is correct, then will I have to list all the zencart table names specifically to keep things separate from the other table?

Thanks again, and I do appreciate your help!
