Jump to PostWhat is the exact error message? Also, omit the spaces between parameter flags and the parameters:
mysqldump -uroot -ppass**** coke_pos > testbc.sql
Jump to Postmysqldump is an OS command, i.e. an executable program, not a mysql statement. You cannot enter it in mysql but only on the command line.

Find out what a command line program is. Google is your friend.
Press the "windows" button, enter "cmd" into the search field and press enter. You'll get a command line window.
Now enter your mysqldump code. You'll probably have to set the system path, too.
