  • You must be missing something a SQL Server database comes as MDF and LDF or .BAKs which could be in .zip or .rar or MSI files but not PDF file. PDF files are text files so you need to check Codeplex for a new download.

  • Is that a typo? it should be mdf not pdf

    CREATE DATABASE Adventureworks

    ON FILENAME ='your path'

    FOR ATTACH

    or

    Right-click on Databases and select Attach.

    Click the Add button and select the database file to be attached.

    Under database details, select the .LDF file and click the Remove button.

    Click OK.
