    odbc project

    hi to all.
    usenet is where i come back when i need some serious help.
    i have to do a project using c++ and sql , ie , i have to use odbc .
    the problem as always is of time . i use visual studio c++ and am
    willing to use microsoft sql server ( any other wud also do fine and i
    can also use any other compiler of c++ ).but the problem is that i do
    not know a thing about odbc nor do i know how to get started with it.i
    would be very greateful if people out there could help me out with
    this.it would be great if anyone could send me a project code.kindly
    tell me the learning curve involved in this and cite some usefull
    sources and books ( online or otherwise ) . just tell me how to get
    started with my project and maybe send some code too ( can mail it to
    me ).any simple project would be fine , i just want to learn odbc .

    willing to learn and thanking all in anticipation . vaibhav .

    Find a book and read it. It can't be too hard.

    Also, consider that ODBC has nothing to do with C++ language, so you
    have posted in a wrong newsgroup, twice within 5 minutes.

      What about hot babes and other such spam? Does that have to do with C+
      +?

      Considering this isn't a spam post, and the post at least mentions C+
      +, I think you could cut the guy some slack.

      To answer the question of the OP: ODBC is just a way to connect to the
      DB and if you're using Visual Studio like you say, their is a wizard
      that will set up the ODBC project for you. You really don't have to
      worry much about the ODBC part of it.

      Look in your visual studio help library for the CRecordSet class
      (IIRC) and read up on this. This will show you how to iterate through
      records and query the DB, etc.

      Good luck.

        Well, your posting was not as helpful as you think. IMO Bazaraov's was
        much more helpful.

          I realize the need to keep on topic, but being a smart ass toward
          people isn't nice.
          There are some people that think that the people using the newsgroup should
          serve the FAQ. These people are obviously deluded. Don't pay any attention
          to them because anyone who doesn't know that the FAQ serves the people is a
          moron. Keep up the good work helping people.

              helped me a lot in my lexer project . and i use ANSI C++ only . i only
              use the standards . and yes something should be done about the spam
