I am unable to log in using the Dashboard

My site is hosted on a friend’s hosting provider and my only way in is via hos Control Panel.

How do I create (or discover?) the login and password for the WordPress dashboard?

Thankyou. I am not even sure what my user name is though…

Look at the wp_users table in PHPMYADMIN.

Great, thankyou.

EDIT: I just got in there and there is no existing table.

There’s some table ending in “users”, right?
