 SQL DISTRIBUTED MANAGEMENT OBJECTS (SQL-DMO) SAMPLE PROGRAMS 
**************************************************************** 
This file describes the SQL-DMO sample programs included with 
Microsoft(R) SQL Server(TM) 6.5 and Microsoft SQL Server  
Workstation System 6.5. 
 
For additional information about SQL Server 6.5, SQL Distributed 
Management Objects, and ODBC, see the "What's New in SQL Server 6.5," 
"Programming SQL Distributed Management Objects," and "Programming  
ODBC for SQL Server" sections of SQL Server Books Online, which  
contains the most up-to-date information available.

32-BIT VISUAL BASIC SAMPLES 
 
The following 32-bit Microsoft(R) Visual Basic(R)-based sample  
programs are located in the C:\MSSQL\SAMPLES\SQLDMO\VB directory  
by default: 
 
EXPLORE 
Sample SQL-DMO object browser using 32-bit Visual Basic. Includes  
the following files: 
    EXPLORE.MAK 
    EXPLORE.FRM 
    EXPLORE.BAS 
 
GENERIC 
Sample SQL-DMO generic program using 32-bit Visual Basic. Includes  
the following files: 
    GENERIC.MAK 
    GENERIC.FRM 
 
**************************************************************** 
32-BIT VISUAL C++ SAMPLES 
 
The following 32-bit C++ sample program is located in the 
C:\MSSQL\SAMPLES\SQLDMO\C\CPP directory by default: 
 
SOCPP 
Sample C++ program using 32-bit Visual C++. Includes the following  
files: 
    SOCPP.MAK 
    SOCPP.CPP 
    SOCPP.MDP 
 
The following 32-bit C sample program is located in the 
C:\MSSQL\SAMPLES\SQLDMO\C\CPP directory by default: 
 
SOC 
Sample C program using 32-bit Visual C++. Includes the following  
files: 
    SOC.MAK 
    SOC.C 
    SOC.MDP 
 
Each project on the Intel(R) platform includes Visual C++ 4.0  
workspace files (.MDP). Double-click on the workspace file to load  
the workspace and make file into the Developer Studio environment. 
 
Each project also contains cross-platform native Visual C++ 4.0 make  
files (.MAK). For each 32-bit project the .MAK file contains Intel,  
Alpha AXP(R), MIPS(R), and PowerPC(TM) build information. When the  
project is loaded into Developer Studio, pick the appropriate target,  
for example "Example1 - Win32 (ALPHA) Debug", and build it. 
 
You can also build from the command line. BUILDALL.BAT, a file that  
will build all of the 32-bit PTK samples, is in the samples directory.  
Use the following syntax:  
 
BUILDALL ({intel | alpha | mips | powerpc} {debug | release} {force}) 
 
To use these samples with Visual C++ 4.0, you need to ensure that  
your Library and Include directory settings point to your own  
directories. To do this using Developer Studio, from the Tools menu,  
choose Options, then click the Directories tab. From the "Show  
directories for" box, choose Include files and Library files, and  
ensure that these directories (as appropriate) are included: 
 
Include files:Library files: 
C:\MSSQL\DBLIB\INCLUDEC:\MSSQL\DBLIB\LIB 
C:\MSSQL\MSDTC\INCLUDEC:\MSSQL\MSDTC\LIB 
C:\MSSQL\ODBD\INCLUDEC:\MSSQL\ODS\LIB 
C:\MSSQL\ODS\INCLUDE 
C:\MSSQL\SQLOLE\INCLUDE
