Can you please tell me what I am doing wrong. I installed the program in the default directory. I even thought I screwed up by putting in different user names and passwords for the PHPmyadmin and the wamp control center so I un-installed the program re-booted and re-installed no help. Although when I click on phpMyAdmin in the control center I do not even get a chance to add a username or a password. Here is the exact error I am receiving.

Ok I figured out my problem. Good info for others....I was loged on my computer as gregory which is an admin. And for someone reason PHPMyAdmin never asked me for my user name and password when I was logging in. So I uninstalled and set the primary user to gregory instead of greg on the next install and it worked like a champ. Thanks for a great product. Now for a new post for the next question.
