Access to the Database

I've seen a posting that said direct access can be gained to the DB using some tool such as phpmyadmin. We're in the midst of a major restructuring and would benefit greatly from direct access to the DB, how can this be achieved? I don't need to download it or copy it or anything of the sort, I would just like to

1st: Back it up (And I understand this backup cannot be downloaded)
2nd: Browse and edit the table(s) directly (Preferably with SQL).

Thanks,
Rob

nope you cant , no access to DB

OK, Is there DB access with a domain purchased through Forummotion? As a test, I installed the phpbb software on my own personal domain and can browse the DB (MySQL) using phpmyadmin just fine...it's a pretty basic DB compared to what I'm used to seeing.

Forumotion doesn't Give you ANy Access to your Database, Unfortunatley

hmmm too bad. So other than the name, there's no "real" advantage to purchasing a domain then.

pretty much so
