Using ODBCLink/SE With ODBC Applications

To access your host through ODBCLink/SE, you will first have to set up one or more data sources via the ODBC Control Panel.

Updating Data

Most ODBC applications require a unique primary key, existing on a table or data set, to be able to update the table. For ALLBASE/SQL tables created with a primary key this is not a problem, but in many cases you will have to enter the primary key name, if one exists.
