Normally you would use phpmyadmin. You should really ask your web hosting provider for help with such issues.

ok so if I were to use PHPmyAdmin
What would I do?

When there is a manual on the phpmyadmin site that tells you how to do these things?
http://www.phpmyadmin.net/home_page/docs.php
Create the database, go into phpmyadmin and select the database.
Goto "SQL"
You should now see "Run SQL query/queries on database"
Where it states "Or Location of the text file:" you will see a browse button click select the database and next time RTFM
