Depends on which technology you want to use. ODBC, ADO, DAO, OLE DB? You have to be more specific. If you want to use ADO, let me know and I'll try to post some stuff. :lol:
Jump to Postusing either oracle or sql , not much knowledge of odbc etc..
I can't really help until you have a better grasp on what you want to do

As far as I know, C++ can use all kinds of db connectivity. I prefer to use ADO myself. ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) allow you to connect to just about any data source, but with an easier interface than using ODBC. The specific technologies you spoke aboujt earlier were only pieces of the puzzle that didn't seem like you knew how they fitted together. Usually, if you're using a technology like Oracle, SQL Server, or MySQL, that is just your back-end that holds the actual database. SQL is the set of commands and syntax used through ODBC to perform the operations on the data at that back end. ADO, DAO, and OLE DB are higher level interfaces for working with ODBC.

I too need to use either sqlserver or Mysql with c++.I have done my project with files but I have no idea at all about how to connect with these databases.And I dont have much experience of using ODBC or ADO.Just used ODBC once long time back with VB which was indeed very easy.I am just asking for some suggestions where to start afresh.Found a couple of links by googling but not of much use.Thanks in advance.
