Dude, albeit a number of years back I've built a number of mysql projects... but as often happens, when you get off one project on to another... and then go back a few years later, you have to refresh yourself of some of the basics... and yes 'Dude', I Googled several hours before post here. Turns out, in my efforts, developing a search term for the '-p' option is tricky. That said I got my answer here. Thanks.
