   I don't have any MySQL experience so I have no idea how to create the database for WordPress. Can someone please help?

   Your best bet is to check the documentation available with your webhosting account. The procedure is going to change a bit depending on the control panel your hosting uses. You can contact their support if you really get stuck.

   Might I suggest a tutorial I did on this:

   If you can access a control panel at your host, this might help.

   Ok so I figured out how to access my database. Here is what i don't know what to do now, how many Tables and Fields do I need to create?

   None. WordPress will create the tables when you install.

   Sounds good, there is only 1 thing i can't figure out, how do you remove the text that is in the header? I can't find the file that has it.

    The tutorial posted by rtivel for creating a database is not helping me. Under "create new database" in red letters I show an "x" and the words "No Privileges"
