The ESQL Sample demonstrates a simple application that uses the embedded SQL programming interface. This application allows you to start the sample database running on the network database server, and access data using SQL statements.
The source code for this sample can be found in samples-dir\SQLAnywhere\ce\esql_sample.
You can load this project file in Visual Studio 2005 from: samples-dir\SQLAnywhere\ce\sql_sample\esql_sample.sln.
NoteIn the ESQL Sample user interface, SQL statements must be entered on a single line. |

Tap ESQL Sample.
Tap Connect to connect to the sample database using the default connection string.
The sample database starts on a network database server. The Server Messages window appears briefly, then disappears.
Tap ExecSQL to execute the default SQL statement, SELECT * FROM Employees.
All the data from the Employees table appears in the data window.

All the data from the Customers table appears in the data window, replacing the data from the Employees table.
Shut down the network database server by tapping Disconnect.
