  In the code below, I used this to transfer data:

  insert into dbo.Contact

  select

  ContactID

  ,NameStyle

  ,Title

  ,FirstName

  ,MiddleName

  ,LastName

  ,Suffix

  ,EmailAddress

  ,EmailPromotion

  ,Phone

  ,ModifiedDate

  from AdventureWorks.Person.Contact

  this may be a stupid question, but I'm still learning sql. What does "Person" represent in the naming convention. AdventureWorks is the database, Contact is the table. What is Person?

  Person is the schema the object belongs to.
