Tutorial Setup

Working through a quick tutorial increases familiarity with the operation of the Driver. This tutorial uses Microsoft Query. Even if you do not have Query, we still recommend reading this section and following along in your chosen ODBC application. You will find the information in this chapter helpful since most ODBC applications share similar appearance and behavior with regard to defining and accessing ODBC Drivers.

A database can be thought of as a collection of related files. Large applications may have many different databases. Typically, files in the same database are related through c-tree Plus indices. The tutorial consists of a database of four data files and their associated indices. These files are described at the end of this chapter.

The c-tree ODBC Driver installs ready to use with the tutorial files. However, to run the tutorial with files controlled by the c-tree Server requires the preparation described below.
