I looked at 5 different versions of phpMyAdmin including XAMPP and I can't find anything that says &quot;data dictionary&quot; in any of them. &nbsp;I did find a reference online to &quot;data dictionary&quot; in phpMyAdmin 2.6.0... where are you seeing this?

Make a data dictionary from phpmyadmin

MySQL is an open source, relational database management system that runs as a server providing multi-user access to a number of databases. Acquired by Oracle in 2009, it is frequently used in combination with PHP installations, powering most of the WordPress installations.

MySQL Server

PHP is a widely-used server-side scripting language especially suited for web development, powering tens of millions of sites from Facebook to personal WordPress blogs. PHP is often paired with the MySQL relational database, but includes support for most other mainstream databases. By utilizing different Server APIs, PHP can work on many different web servers as a server-side scripting language.

Databases are organized collections of data, most commonly accessed through management systems including schemas, tables, queries and processes that allow users to enter and manipulate the information or utilize it in other fashions, such as with web applications or for reporting purposes.
