(RADIATOR) dirt newbie question on moving from flat file to SQL auth

Hi Hugh Irvine and all you folks who know LOTS more than we idiots over 
here :-)

We have been running Radiator for years on a flat file users list.

Recently, we have been asked to move to a SQL auth database.  However, I 
personally know only enough about SQL to be an idiot and not truly "Clued".

I tried to run the goodies script msql.SQL using our local MS SQL Serve 
2000 database.

I am so brain-dead and neophyte that I could not figure out how to get the 
script to create a working MS SQL database-based users file so that it 
would work with Radiator 3.6.  We have never had a problem with the 
flat-file method, but I am in search of a true entry-level FAQ and set of 
instructions no how to migrate to SQL - for DUMMIES like me :-)

Can ANYONE please point me to an FAQ which will give me step-by-step to 
create and support a MS SQL (or even a MySQL on a Win 2K box) Radiator 
installation?    I couldn't even get SQL Profiler to work to properly ruin 
the mssql.sql script provide in goodies.

Sorry for the truly non-clued request..................   :-(

Sr. Mary Grace
