  1. 2009 Spring Conference Luis I. Gomez SQLISAM.EXE provided by Mills Enterprise SQLISAM.EXEUSING SQL DATA SOURCES in BR

  2. Using SQL Data Sources in BR • ODBC and DSN data sources • SQL - What is it? • Northwind.mdb • Practical application “Custom Request” • SQLISAM.exe – What is it? • CONTEXT.wb – What is it? • Solution using BR and SQLISAM

  3. ODBC and DSN Data Sources • What is it? • (O)pen (D)ata(B)ase (C)onnectivity • Interface provided by MS Windows • Provides connectivity to many database engines • MS Access • SQL Server , Oracle • MySql, Firebird and many others • (D)atabase (S)ource (N)ame • The actual configuration mechanism in MS Windows • User DSN • System DSN

  10. SQLISAM.EXE – What is it? • First released BRG fall 2008 • Simple application • Performs SQL query against • Any ODBC source • MS Access databases • Excel tables • Creates a text file describing the results • Creates a BR “Internal Data File” with results • [See SQLISAM\Demofolder]

  11. CONTEXT.wb • FNOPEN_SQL • Library to interface with SQLISAM.exe • FNGETHANDLE • Library to assign next available line number • FNGET_VAR$ • Library to assign local BR variables from SQL field names

  12. Context.wb – FNOPEN_SQL
