Hi Mr. Feldman,
I just start learning ADA for my new project in my company. I bought
both of your ADA 95 books which are excellent learning tools. I am
currently working on how to make a ODBC driver connection from ADA
to Access Database. I can do it in Visual C++ and Borland C++ by
making SQL calls directly after ODBC drivers are loaded. Since I
am new to ADA, I wonder what I need to do to make the same kind of
ODBC connections from ADA. I appreciate your advices or point me
to books in the market that specifically deal with Windows programming
through ADA. Thank you very much.
