Hi Vishal, You can check for the database file (.mdf file) in the location where you have saved your project. To know where you have saved your project, right click on the Project and Click on "Open Containing folder". It will open the file in Windows explorer and there you can find a file with .mdf format. That is your database file. I hope you understand what I mean to say and if this does not help u tell me what have u done and what obstacles did u got it.

Thanks
Ganesh
