Lots of tables, But no longer access to Database?

Ok, So my friend gave up on his hosting company a while back, And he gave me the source to his panel, It was very good too, Now i wanted to start using it again but he doesn't have a copy of his MySQL of the panel, So now i am in a dilemma, The panel had MANY tables etc, How could i somehow build the database backup again, (I am not too good with database's so if i looked through the source i wouldn't know what was int and what was char etc :S)

 

Could anyone share there thoughts and help me on the subject?

Unfortunately, you will need to know the basics of how databases work, the best types to use for what kind of data, max length needed to handle the data, etc. Next, you would need to parse through the code and find all references to results from MySQL, as well as all sql queries. With that knowledge, and the skillset described, you should be able to reconstruct it.
