.frm / .MYD / .MYI files

Hi all,

 

In my infinite wisdom and staggering ineptitude, I had a crash and lost all of the info on my testing webserver. I've since reinstalled the webserver, and am about to get into re-integrating my MYSQL files from a backup.

 

I'm running XAMPP on a windows machine, and in the mysql/data folder there are folder entries for the various databases I set up.

 

My question is - Once I have recreated the blank DB of the same name of the original DB, is it OK to simply go and grab the relevant .frm / .MYD / .MYI files from the backup, and copy them to the DB's folder?

... or are there implications of doing that?

 

All info appreciated.

Woolyg.
