Northwind 2007

[Guest]

It doesn't seem to be on my computer. Through Add/Remove Programs I can't see
where to install the mdb under Access or other options.

Try this:
1. Open Access
2. On the Getting Started screen there are some categories listed in the
left task pane
3. Click the one called Sample
4. You should see the Northwind 2007 template now in the middle of the
screen
5. Click on the icon, enter the name and location on the right task pane,
and then click the Download button

Or this:
1. Search your computer for the file called Northwind.accdt
2. On a Win XP machine with normal English install it is located here:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Templates\1033\Access
3. Double-click on the file, enter the name and location on the right task
pane on the Getting Started Screen, and then click the Create button

Or this:
1. Download from here:

Thanks. I successfully downloaded the DB, but each time I open it it takes
me through the "enabling" window/dialogue. Is there a way to make it just a
database file that opens when double-clicked?

You need to set up a trusted location.
