Yes, it looks so but I’m still wondering whether it contains more than it should…here are a few lines from the top. Do they look correct to you? thanks again.

@OLD_CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS=@@CHARACTER_SET_RESULTS */;
/*!40101 SET @OLD_COLLATION_CONNECTION=@@COLLATION_CONNECTION */;
/*!40101 SET NAMES utf8 */;

Thanks esmi. The backup file on my desktop is in a notepad format with a .sql extension. Is that how it’s supposed to look?

It doesn’t look like a server problem at that end. When I log on back to mysql, all the tables are still there. And Yes I did follow the instructions, clicked go and saved the downloaded file to my desktop — but now I’m thinking maybe I checked some boxes I wasn’t supposed to??
