stop / start / restart mysql

Hello everyone,
I've got a little question;
I want to start mysql if it's not running, shut down when it's not nessecery
to run and restart it each day.. I've got a apache server running on Windows
XP..  Does someone have the knowledge to create a short program for me; I
don't...

Thank you!

You can start and stop is just as you would any other Windows service.
