Hi @BIVS Databaze ,

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A!

After researched, there doesn't have much information about the tables and fields of the Pubs database in English. However, I found a documents about Pubs database analysis for SQL Server 2000. But the document is write by Chinese, I have translated for the first part(the blue part). You could use Google translation if the document are useful.

And the Entity Relationship Diagram of Pubs Database as below:
