Hi Kiran

Please click on the link to see what I was trying to replicate on my end. - https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/training/modules/get-data/3b-parameters

I followed the instructions and filled in all the information exactly as shown in the learning module screenshots to connect to the database called 'TailwindTraders', but I haven't been able to access the manager. How can I access the database to proceed with the next steps of the tutorial module?
