Hi Dave,
The DELIMITER statement is a command to the mysql client not an SQL
statement. This is why phpAdmin is objecting. Here are a listing of the
mysql client commands

There seems to be an error in your SQL query. The MySQL server error
output
below, if there is any, may also help you in diagnosing the problem
ERROR: Unknown Punctuation String @ 11
STR: //
SQL: delimiter //
SQL query:

MySQL said:
#1064 - You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that
corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use
near
'delimiter //' at line 1
