Access denied for user - new setup issue

I just setup an instance of MySQL on a Windows XP Pro machine. I am attempting to setup a few new PHP applications. My web server has been working fine and running PHP no problem. The MySQL windows service is running too.

I believe all my issues are related to security in relation to user/pwd issues. In the example below I am using the default user with no password out of box. But I have tried with no luck too using the user and password I modified in the my.ini file via the WinMySQLAdmin 1.4 GUI.

So being a newbie of course I am doing something wrong. Thanks for the help...

From CMD window:

mysql> create database mynewdatabase; GRANT ALL ON mynewdatabase.* TO mynewuser@localhost IDENTIFIED BY "mynewuserpassword";

Error 1044: Access denied for user: '@localhost' to database 'mynewdatabase'
