You should run the Adaptive Server Anywhere software on your computer while you read and work through the examples in this chapter.
Each example instructs you to type commands into Interactive SQL and describes what you will see on your computer screen. If you cannot run the software as you read the tutorials, you will still be able to learn about SQL, but you will not have the opportunity to experiment on your own.
The examples assume that you have started Interactive SQL and are connected to the sample database.
