Northwind database - Product table child of Suppliers table

Hello,

In the book "Visual Studio Tools for Office - C# 2005", they are referencing
a Northwind datbase/dataset that is structured with the Suppliers table as
parent and the Products tables as child and in the dataset view, the Products
table appears indented to the right under the Suppliers table.

When i went to download the latest version of the Northwind datbase, which
appears to be the version for year 2000, those 2 tables do not appear to be
in the indented format appearing in the book.

The book pointed to the Northwind db in the \Program Files\Microsoft
Office\Office11\Samples directory and when i compare this db with the
downloaded db they appear to the same.

Thanks very much for any references!

I suggest you repost your message in the Access news group, as Northwind
is a Microsoft Access database. You will be more likely to find someone who
knows the answer to your question.

I suspect you are referring to the Relationships view -- where you are able
to visually see how the tables are related to each other. If so, the fact
that a table may visually appear "indented to the right" means that's what
the individual that created the screen shot opted to place them. You can
drag the tables around by the title bar and place them anywhere in the
window.
