Is it possible to have two versions of mysql running on the same machine...version 4 and 5???

Yes, but you will need to assign a different port to communicate for the second one, and installed on a different location.

I am running MySQL 4.0, 4.1 & 5 all together on my localhost (WinXP)

This sounds interesting......what is the process of install a different port? Just pick one during the initial install?

Hello again

Well I am getting there...I have both version 4 and 5 installed and running. They appear to be ok.

So my "final" question is...now do I access them with phpmyadmin?? When I run phpmyadmin it just goes to the localhost version 5 and I don't get the option to go to 4.
I am stuck here :)
