I ran a quick search on google regarding the NothWind Database or schema, but I did not run across anything that would explain what it is and what it is used for, however, it seems to be a pretty useful and known one.
I would appeciate insight on this. thanks esv. ps. I think it would be more appropiate to reply privately to me, since this does not seem to be particulary related to MySQL. thanks again. --- "J.
