Looking for 'sample data'.

    I've been creating some SQL databases but entering records is taking 'too much' time and the records are totally random/made up. This has been OK so far but what I'm really looking for are some free database records which have many entries which are actually 'real world' so I can test my creations more realisticly.

    So I was wondering if anyone knows of any sources of free databases, with probably around 250 records or more.

    Many thanks!

    What records? You never mentioned database type or what 'entries' you need.. Try explaining a bit further, it's like you're saying "I want a car", nothing more :)

    Are you using a form to fill out and add the data? maybe this is easy for you?

    You can find a bunch of free databases, some pretty large, at myDataMaster, under the Free Downloads section, maybe something there will work for you. :)

    I can provide sample white pages type data. Also, I have a code generator to generate SQL INSERT or other statements as needed.
