Question

Answer 1

If you have external access to both mySQL servers, HeidiSQL is a great Windows GUI for mySQL with a good export function.

Alternatively (also needing external access), install the mySQL binaries on your machine and do a simple

mysqldump -h hostname_source -u username -p databasename > dump.sql
mysql -h hostname_target -u username -p databasename < dump.sql
