Message #1 by Imar Spaanjaars <Imar@S...> on Sat, 07 Oct 2000 14:42:00 +0200
Hi there,



Does anybody still have a copy of the files "AdvWorks_InsertData.sql" and 

"AdvWorks_CreateTables.sql"??

I downloaded them from the Wrox ASP+ website, but the tables that these 

scripts create don't match with the sourcecode and the book. The book for 

instance references a table called Shipping_Methods, but this table is not 

created by the SQL scripts.



Or am I overlooking something completely??





Thanks,



Imar

Well, you could copy them all to the server into their own directory / 

application, or in another existing application.

I prefer to copy them one by one, as I proceed through the book. This way, 

you'll only get what you need.

Hi there,



I got a tip from Steve Persighetti who said that the tables and content for 

the AdvWorks database, can also be created from AdvWorks.mdb. This file is 

installed when you install the Microsoft Platform SDK. The AdvWorks.mdb is 

part of the sample section on RDS and get installed in C:\Program 

Files\Microsoft Platform SDK\Samples\DataAccess\rds\RDSTest by default.



Let me know if you need the database, so I can mail it to you. Please state 

your Access version in that case.

After some more searching, the file also seems to appear inside another 

file: RDS.cab, located somewhere in the Windows NT Option Pack directory 

structure.

Hi Imar,

Please do the needful as it will be of  great help and there is another

question that I have for you, do we need to use the ToString() function to

convert the struing types to make the application work properly...because it

gives casting errors if I do not do it that way.



Hey another question, If you have a working version of the ADVWOERKS

application with mdb database can you forward it to me.



Regards Puneet.

Hi there,



If everything works out OK, the new SQL scripts will be available at the 

Wrox site shortly. (So I was told).



In the mean time, I'll mail you the Access MDB file.
