You don't need wamp, phpmyadmin, workbench or anything else. You don't need to create tables or know anything about sql.
some of these can help but they should not be essential
the step by step therefore is...
1. download mysql
2. install mysql
3. add entries to advancedsettings.xml as described in post 2
4. enjoy...xbmc will create the required schemas according to what you've named them in the xml file and populate all the required tables etc. just rescan your library in as you would normally.
If you've done that and experience problems post here, if you have problems with user permissions or want to view databases the simplest way is using mysql workbench which provides a pretty simple gui for viewing databases.
as i said. im a mysql noob thx craig
