 * Trying to use WAMP MyPHPadmin to export the database tables into a sql file, 
   so that I can import them onto the host. There is a database created on the host,
   named the same and waiting to be populated with wordpress tables/data. The rest
   of this site’s wordpress files were uploaded to the host by FTP. Right now my
   site page has the classic database error on it. “Error establishing a database
   connection.”
 * The hosts PHPadmin did not see the wp database so I could not import those tables
   into the database created by the host. It was recommended I use WAMP PhpMyadmin
   to create a sql file that the host PHPMyAdmin could recognize.
 * But the WAMP PhpMyadmin does not list my wordpress database. THe WAMP server 
   was installed AFTER I created this database locally.
 * Is there any way to get the WAMP server to see the wordpress db?
