Data Assist Wizard

I have been searching the WA documentation, WA forums, and Internet for the help I need to resolve my problem since last spring and with no results.

I'm using DW and have purchased hundreds of dollars in WA extensions. I'm trying to get the basic DW setup information to access the databases. I can logon to my remote site via FTP through DW. However, I cannot find the root directly prefix url that will satisfy the database connection wizard to reach the _mmServerScripts directory.

I have contacted my ISP, and they keep giving me absolute paths from within their server, when what I actually need is a url that begins .

Being completely new to DW and WA, and having only the most rudimentary understanding of MySQL, I have not been able to resolve this problem for six months. Is there any type of documentation from WA that can absolutely step me through the setup process and that will ensure I can connect to the MySQL databases through Dreamweaver and the WA Data Assist Wizard?

I've seen that issue before myself. It's just kind of hard to know exactly what to do.

Take a look at this video, I think seeing it done might be beneficial (not a great English version, but usable)
