| Some pre-written scripts that contain things such as automobile make or other generic common data like that?I'm trying to avoid populating my db by hand. Any insight would be appreciated.cheers |

Is this for practice purposes? Why not use some of the sample DB's like Northwind, Pubs, Adventureworks etc?

| No it's not for practice purposes. So those sample db's won't be of much help. I guess I'll just have to resort to parsing some html that contain drop downlists of car makes and models.cheers |
