View tables from my desk top

[harman]

Hi is there any application that lets me look at mysql tables on a remote server. I tried using mysqladministrator but couldnt figure out how to view the contents of the table...thanks

phpMyAdmin (assuming you have a local webserver)

or

MS Access using the myODBC driver.

phpmyadmin doesnt let me connect to the remot server where my mysql data base is.

some commercial web hosts (like mine) do not allow remote connection to their database servers. if this is the case for you then you will not be able to connect from your desktop via any interface app. you would have to export the database schema from your host and import it to your local mySQL database server. this can all be done with phpmyadmin but you would obviosly have to install a copy on your webhost first.
