How do I get a Sample DB for Office 2002 Home Edition?

[Gentrain DB Builder]

I just started trying to learn hosw to use Access with Office XP 2002 Home
Edition. Office was installed by Compact prior to my purchase of the
computer. Upon getting to Chapter 3 in Frye's book, Access 2002, I tried to
open the Northwind Sample Database. Not. Apparently, I need the CD's from
the manufacturer or must go through an extended process of upgrading from
Microsoft. Any place I can get a simple, sample database that will help me
get started? My database is intended for pretty basic volunteer use to keep
track of our club members. Thanks. JfRi

It says Access 2000, but they should be the same.

I've got a church membership database which might work pretty nicely
for you, and would at least give you some ideas about how to structure
one.

Drop me an email at jvinson <at> wysard of info <dot> com (eliminate
blanks and make the obvious punctuation changes) if you would like a
free copy.

If you don't have Office Pro, you don't have Access installed.

I was able to get the actual Northwind at a website sent by Doug. Appreciate
your time.
