Thanks very much, I see that it is disabled and

that isn't stored in the regular MySQL table files,
Yes. Not all MySQL data are stored in those subdirectories.
so that when I
take a backup of the mysql/data directory (via the CPanel), I'm not
getting everything?
That's entirely possible. Copying files out of MySQL's data directory is not a
reliable backup mechanism, especially if you're only copying from some
database's subdirectory.
I want to move hosting, but all I have are the MySQL
table files, not
the single sql file... does that mean I don't have all I need, and I
first need to be able to do an sql export?
Probably.
