Default Northwind database - Products table child of Suppliers Table?

Hello,

In the book "Visual Studio Tools for Office - C# 2005", they are referencing
a Northwind datbase/dataset that is structured with the Suppliers table as
parent and the Products tables as child and in the dataset view, the Products
table appears indented to the right under the Suppliers table.

When i went to download the latest version of the Northwind datbase, which
appears to be the version for year 2000, those 2 tables do not appear to be
in the indented format appearing in the book.

The book pointed to the Northwind db in the \Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office11\Samples directory and when i compare this db with the
downloaded db they appear to the same.

Thanks very much for any references!
BobK

What version of Access do you have, Bob? If you have your CD, there have
previously been (Acc2000 and before) a folder called Samples or Tutorials
which contains all these goodies but doesn't necessarily install when you
install Office. Don't know if you still get that on the later versions.

ok please scratch this post as i thought i was looking at the db when in
actuality i'm looking at the "dataset" and apparently, VS might be making
that indented presentation when it discovers there is a relationship between
tables, however, my VS is not indenting the Products table as shown in the
book, so there must be a setting that's not set correctly or something

Thanks anyway

It sounds like the sort of thing you might get on the View Menu.
