How do i use the datagrid control with northwind???

hey, i am using ms sql server and visual studio 2003. i am trying to use northwind with a datagrid control, but my problem is i don't know where to put the northwind database that i downloaded or how to use it. I know my strConnection is wrong. How do i fix this so that i can use the northwind database? what is my server? pwd? and database? do i place the exact location where the northwind databae is located? like C:\... the book i am using is ASP.Net oreilly they have the connection string as string strConnection = "server=YourServer; uid=sa; pwd=YourPW; database=northwind"; here is my code: // create the connection string string strConnection = "server=localhost; uid=sa; pwd=; database=Nwind"; // create the command string string strCommand = "Select * from Customers"; // create the data set command object and dataset SqlDataAdapter dataAdapter = new SqlDataAdapter(strCommand, strConnection); DataSet dataSet = new DataSet( ); // fill the dataset dataAdapter.Fill(dataSet, "Customers"); SqlCommandBuilder bldr = new SqlCommandBuilder(dataAdapter); // get the table DataTable dataTable = dataSet.Tables[0]; dgCustomers.DataSource = dataTable; dgCustomers.DataBind( ); thanks, hope to hear i am answer spent 2 1/2 hours already!!! john
