Now I understand a bit better I will leave apache and mysql running. The reason for my question is that I have downloaded Xampp in order to learn about PHP and linking it with mysql. (www.xampp.org). Xampp includes its own versions of apache and mysql so I need to stop my current versions before I start Xampp. Now that I know a bit more, once I have finished playing with Xampp I will restart both apache and mysql. Again, many thanks for all the info. Sigh ...still so much to learn.
