On the setup... where do I run this file (below)?  Do I run it locally or on my server? 
Sorry if it is a silly question.   I already ran it on my server, I just want to confirm.  Thanks.
 
"7 Run the file 'msSQL_server_setup.asp' found in the main folder of the Forum in your web browser. This file will create all the tables, relations, and default values in the empty database you have created on the SQL Server. It is highly recommend for security purposes that you delete this file from the Web Server once the database is fully created. "

enter the required details into the SQL_server_connection.asp file

then you run the set up script on the webserver

you can do it anywhere but for speed on the web server is best

db files?

there should be no db files for you to upload , you just need to create a MS SQL database on the SQL /webserver

then run the file
