This chapter presents information for developing applications that call the ODBC programming interface directly.
The primary documentation for ODBC application development is the Microsoft 
ODBC SDK documentation, available as part of the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) SDK. This chapter provides introductory material and describes features specific to Adaptive Server Anywhere, but is not an exhaustive guide to ODBC application programming.
Some application development tools that already have ODBC support provide their own programming interface that hides the ODBC interface. This chapter is not intended for users of those tools.
