Description yudiset 2008-10-09 05:57:14 UTC 
[ BUILD # : 200810080330 ]
[ JDK VERSION : 1.6.0_07 ]

Using another tool to connect to a MySQL server such as SQLYog
(www.webyog.com), we can connect to a MySQL server without have to
specify a database.

Also in reality, we don't always have the knowledge of the existing
databases in a MySQL server.

Selection of a database when connecting to a MySQL server should be
an option.

In netbeans 7.2 you can do two things:

1. Register an mysql server (for administrative access), this creates a server node this also lists all available databases
2. Register a connection without specifing a database or specifing mysql as database, the databases are all listed under the connection node.
