  • I saw this response posted somewhere to a similar issue:

    Thank you for contacting Microsoft Press.

    Please make sure you are downloading the correct AdventureWorks database for SQL Server 2005. The CodePlex website contains two versions of the database, one for SQL Server 2008 and one for SQL Server 2005. If you are viewing the AdventureWorks database download release for SQL Server 2008 you must click “SQL Server 2005 SP2a” in the Releases box on the right hand side. You can also use the following link to download the SQL Server 2005 version directly at: http://www.codeplex.com/MSFTDBProdSamples/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4004.

  • Thx.

    There are few download for that.

    AdventureWorksDB is the Adventure Works Cycles OLTP sample databases.

    AdventureWorksBI is the Adventure Works Data Warehouse and Analysis Services database project.

    AdventureWorksLT is a very simple sample database based on the Adventure Works Cycles OLTP sample database.

     

    It seems i can only install AdventureWorksLT for SQLExpress.
