Handling databases via a Linux ODBC driver

To handle the databases via a Linux ODBC driver:

  2. Install (if necessary) the ODBC driver corresponding to the database to use.
  3. In your Linux application or site, handle the databases via the SQL functions of WLanguage.

Installing the ODBC layer in Debian
