    Have you tried to google them?

    The first result when I searched Northwind was https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=23654

    It might be different for you since I'm using DuckDuckGo

    Mil gracias, senor Cazares.

    I printed "Northwind Database Installation" and "Installing the Northwind Sample Database", both from Microsoft webpages. I just noticed that the latter is for VS 2012 and I need to go back and click on "Other Versions" to get specific instructions on how to install to SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.

    But I have spent over 2 weeks getting a connection to my Server and it has the Adventureworks DB available and the MS Book (Microsoft SQL

    Server 2005 Implementation and Maintenance) that I am studying uses that DB in their exercises. Right now I want to continue my studies in this text and I will get back to installing the Northwind DB when I am ready to study "Microsoft ADO.NET 2.0".

    BTW, I am not fluent in Spanish. I know about 9000 words but I do not converse well, everyone (even 6 year old children) know more Spanish than I do. He estudiado mucho pero aprendido un poco. Thanks again. JRichards54 🙂
