How do you crush a database?

I have a database that I was using to play around with some Postnuke stuff. Now, I'm starting from scratch and want to crush all the data/tables in that database. I'm taking a leap and assuming that I would do so in the PHPmyAdmin in the Control Panel, but I don't want to start messing around and totally screw things up, so I thought I would ask here first.

(And hey, lookit me, I actually went a weekend without any questions

- I'm starting to figure this stuff out for myself as I go along . . .)

Im MySQLadmin you should be able to get a list of all the tables (by click the database name).

There are check boxes down the left hand side.
Tick all these then at the bottom drop down box select "drop". this will remove the tables from the database and leave you with a blank one.

There is also an option to "check all" if you want to tick everybox in one go.
