I NEED HELP

I help with a company site that has a server and nobody really knows what is going on with it. I am trying to get the site up and running i got most of it up and going but i would like to create a database on it so i can have people log in and delete files and move files i has a php script that i want to use but i cant get a SQL data base created. There is nobody that has access to the site execept for me and all i have is the ftp access how can i create a database with out any control panel or anything. It is just FTP access, is there a program i can use to connect to the server to give me a control panel to work from or is there a way i can create a data base so i can use this script i have.

If you aren't in control of the server (and from the sound of it, you are not, if all you have is FTP access), you will have to talk to the server administrator, and ask if it supports MySQL (I'm assuming that that is the database type). If not, he'll have to install it, or you'll have to find a different server.

The administrator has full access to it but the company doesn't have a software or online control panel, it does support MySQL so i need a way to connect to it.
