Contoso Database Version?

Question

Will the Contoso Database only run with Enterprise SQL Server? I tried to restore it and got an error, "cannot be started in this edition of SQL Server because part or all of object DimProduct is enabled with data compression or vardecimal storage format. Data compression and vardecimal stroage forat are only supported on SQL Server Enterprise Edition." I did not see any other sites to download a different format for a different version of SQL Server.

Hi,

Just discovered the same error! It think it's a shame, as such export should be available to all developers that normally do run a standard version of the Sql Server or the BI Edition, but NOT the Enterprise, which I find ridiculous....
