Perhaps it may be the case that Microsoft has already posted new documentation on installing databases into SQL Server Management Studio graphically however, at the time this article was originally posted back in 2005, at the time I had been unable to locate an equivalent article in the Microsoft documentation hence, I wrote my own, which has evolved into this article. I am an experienced technical writer, and an astrophysicist. Therefore, back then I wrote this article, so as to help other SQL Server beginners. However, I was unable to find anything in MSDN that actually walked one through installing them in SQL Server Management Studio. I was searching the documentation and came upon samples making use of the Northwind and the Pubs databases. I wrote this back in 2005, when I myself was just starting out with SQL Server. SQL Server beginners and database development beginners are the audience for whom this article is written. This article is to help you get started quickly with SQL Server samples, so as to use them to learn basic techniques. Being a SQL/SQL Server newbie myself, I figured there may be others in my boat who might want both databases in an easily-accessible spot, and an easier, less error-prone way of installing them into SQL Server 2005 Express Edition than, say, running SQL query scripts. They are used in countless tutorials and walkthroughs published by Microsoft and others.
