Progress DataDirect ships an application, named demoodbc, that is installed in the /samples/demo subdirectory of the product installation directory. Once you have set up your environment and data source, use the demoodbc application to test your connection. The syntax to run the application is:
The demoodbc application is coded to execute a Select statement from a table named emp. If you have an emp table in your database, the results are returned. If you do not have an emp table, you receive the message: Invalid object name ’EMP’. This message confirms a successful connection to the database.
Refer to the demoodbc.txt file in the demo subdirectory for an explanation of how to build and use this application.
