The contents of the SQLDLL file are as follows:


   File        Description
   ----        -----------
   SQLDLL.C    The C source code for the DLL
   SQLDLL.DEF  The definition file for SQLDLL.C
   TEST.C      The C source code for the test program
   TEST.H      The header file for TEST.C
   TEST.DEF    The definition file for TEST.C
   TEST.RC     The resource file for TEST.C

NOTE: While callback functions in Windows are normally declared FAR PASCAL, dblib expects these two callback functions, dbwinMessageHandler() and dbwinErrorHandler(), to be declared FAR cdecl. Also note the use of the GetFocus() procedure in the DLL to get the handle of the window that currently owns the input focus.
