I purchased a used copy of the SQL book listed in the subject but the
CD is missing. I have access to SQL Server 2000 and so don't need the
trial software but would like to get the source for the database used
in the examples. Does anyone know where I can get this?What's the name of the sample database used in the examples?

Have you checked the publisher's web site. Many publishers post the
source code from books. Also, you might try the author's home page (if
you have it), which may have some information as well.

"Local" Server
All:
I was using a 120 day eval of SQL Server, and then purchased the developers
edition. During the install....and don't ask me exactly how I did it, I
ended up naming my "new" server TVB\TVB - the old one was just TVB, and I
managed to remove the TVB and now have no "local" server, so to speak. I
can't find the setting to rectify this, although the database works
OK...but when using connection strings, I can't use localhost in the code,
I have to use the actual name, fortunately I can still use it in the URL.
This is probably easy to rectify if one knows where to look or what to do,
and I fear this may cause a problem bigger than the minor annoyance it is
now down the line. (Plus I only have a few apps set up , many more to come)
Advice greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
Tom BThe only way to rectify this is to uninstall the named instance and
reinstall as a default instance. You cannot rename a SQL Server named
instance. If you have databases you want to keep then you can back them up
or detach them before uninstalling and then restore or attach them to your
default instance (that will have the same name as the server)
