The Northwind database is an excellent Access sample database. If you have already downloaded and/or activated Microsoft Access, you will need to follow the steps to download Northwind. Make sure you download the Northwind database that is compatible with your Access version. The best place of course to get the sample database is at www.microsoft.com. However, if you need a more thorough
. tutorial I would read the article "Install the Northwind Sample Database in Microsoft Access" at http://databases.about.com/od/access/ht/northwind.htm.
