INF: Small Windows DB-Library Sample Application

• Microsoft SQL Server Programmer's Toolkit, version 4.2

SUMMARY

SQLWin is a small, fully functional Windows DB-Library (DB-Lib) application. It allows the user to specify a server name, login ID, and password when connecting to a SQL server. It also displays the DB-Lib version in the About box.

SQLWin can be used as a template for creating larger Windows DB-Lib programs, much like the GENERIC program that comes with the Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) and Microsoft QuickC for Windows.

SQLWin can also be used to easily test the functionality of a Windows DB- Lib program. The source code contains a C function called DoDblib() that is executed when the menu item SQL/Test is chosen. This function can contain any set of DB-Lib functions. It currently contains a small sample query against the PUBS database.
