Hello together,

today I bought my dbForge Studio for MySQL. I want to create the first connection. Testing connection works fine.

But I should choose a default database, but in the dropdown I have only
- information_shema
- mysql
- test

I want to create my databases with dbForge Studio. Which database I should choose? Should I create a new one with the shell (cmd) first? Or have anyone a link how I create the correct default databse for it?

Thank you and best regards.

You can create a connection without a database being selected in the 'Database' drop-down menu. In this case all databases will be accessible in Database Explorer.

Please also see the following topics in the product's Help documentation:

- How to: Create and Drop Databases
- How To: Manage Database Connections
- General, Database Connection Properties Dialog Box

and the 'Simple Connection' demo video at: http://www.devart.com/dbforge/mysql/studio/demos.html

Please be aware that the new version 6.0 of dbForge Studio for MySQL has been released and is available for downloading: http://www.devart.com/dbforge/mysql/studio/
