If you are unable to attach the databases located in the zip file, use the following steps:
- Using SSMS, create 2 databases, Northwind and pubs
- Using SSMS, open the NorthwindObjectsAndData.SQL and execute
- Using SSMS, open the pubsObjectsAndData.SQL and execute
*NOTE: If you are using older versions of SQL Server, CONCAT_WS and FETCH NEXT are not available.
Comment out the stored procedure populate_table,
DELETE the pubs database
Recreate the pubs database and execute the pubsObjectsAndData.SQL again.
This should create the databases as used in the examples for the course: Combining and Filtering Data with T-SQL
