Easy - get yourself MySql front or SQLyog (use google to find)
After installation follow instructions to set up db and users.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->

I have a document on setting up MySQL on a Windows machine.

Since you are using Apache (not IIS) and you don't need Perl,
you can just do steps 3 and 5.

Yep, once Apache is up and running you simply use <a style='text-decoration: underline;' href="http://localhost/" target="_blank">http://localhost/</a> to
connect to anything in there.

Do not worry about where MySql is - if it has been installed properly
localhost will find it.
Use PhPMyAdmin to set up your DBs or better yet get a hold of MySqlFront or
SQLyog
Both are free and good to use.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
