    I did not understand how to use the example database called Carsales Reports SSC which is a .bak file (CarSales_SSC.bak)

    you kindly guide me step by step?

    thanks

    Hi Andrea,

    You will have to restore this backup file into a SQL Server 2012 or 2014 instance (and, of course, setting your own paths for the data and log files) using either T-SQL RESTORE or SSMS.

    Regards,

    Adam

    PS

    See https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186858.aspx for how to restore a backup file.

    Hi Adam

    thank you very much for your answer

    I think I have two problems

    1. my version of Mssql is 2008 r2

    2. I do not know the name of the db

    can you help me?

    Hi Andrea,

    You can use:

    RESTORE HEADERONLY FROM DISK = 'the file name here' to get the database name

    It is impossible to restore a 2012 database to a 2008 version - you will have to use a 2012 version (express is a free version)

    Regards,

    Adam
