This is my first trying to install web wiz forum for SQL Server version. Just would like to ask where the database files located or actually I need to create them manually? Thanks.

Please read the documentation,

within it it says about adding the server details to admin/SQL _server_connection.asp

then you have to run MSSQL_server_setup.asp from the main forum. that will create the SQL database and default values, as like the access version.

it will also create the stored procedures

That's a teeny bit misleading.
You first have to use whatever facility your web host offers to create an account on their mssql server and then create an empty database.
Then you run the WWF db setup to create the tables, stored procs, etc.

Lead me not into temptation... I know the short cut, follow me.
