The data access components in BBj® provide Business BASIC programmers with complete database independence along with flexible data access options. Our TechCon2001 Accessing Data session presented information about these components: the BBj Data Server with a rewritten and dramatically improved SQL engine, and the new ODBC and JDBC drivers. We've written about these components previously in the Advantage. Check out the following articles online. You can also read the ODBC and JDBC and SQL in BBj session's PowerPoint notes.
