 * Hello Helpful People-
 * I already have one old wordpress sql database that works, but I need to switch
   to a new database that I have manually updated.
 * I have attempted to IMPORT a the new database via phpMyAdmin, but keep getting
   an error.
 * **Here is a link to the actual error screen:**

 * Also, the new database size is 27MB, so it is well under the Max 105MB.

 * You must first select a database to import into (or create a new one), thus you
   are getting the No Database Selected error, as PhpMyAdmin doesn’t know what database
   to import the tables into.
