upload the install database sql files onto SQL2005 sp2 HOW? the commed failed

I host my own server, Have own static IP, have own DNS server. \
I created the database in SQL using the server manager window, but I don't know how to install the sql files from the install folder.
If anyone knows how please let me know. Mean while I will be looking for hints on how to install these files on the Microsoft knowledge data base. By no means am I an expert on SQL most of my knowledge is MYSQL;

Thank You for any help.

Hi Bogotshot,

You need to have SQL Server Management Tools (Express will do).
Download and install this, then run the SQL files using that.

Let me know if you need more details,

Nate.

Nate  Thank You for your kind response.

I do have have manager Express installed.

I opened the install sql files in a query window of the database I created for this cart.

I just don't know the commands to load the files into the data base. When i used Apache/MYSQL all i had to do is import. MSSQL works a little different.



Thank you again in advance for your kindness.

Once you have opened the file in a query window you have to hit the 'Execute' button (may show as an ! exclamation mark) and this will perform the query, creating the tables etc.
