Just FYI since you said this is your first time around w/ SQL Server...

Data files are stored in TWO files, the Data file itself and the

Transaction log. It isn't a log file in the sense of "I created a

record at this time" or "I updated a record at this time". It's part

of the backup/restore strategy that SQL uses.
