I have written a small program which uses ODBC to connect to a Access Database. I am simply wanting
to know if this would also work with MS SQL without any modifications what so ever, or does ODBC not
really accomplish what it was designed for ?
The SQL statments used are very simple; the INSERT / UPDATE / DELETE are the same syntax as mysql,
so i assume would also work under mSsql, and the SELECTs, although looking complex, don't
perform JOINs or anything (eg: SELECT TOP 10 RECORD_NR, StatusField, ExtendedStatusField, PICTURE,
SURNAME, FIRSTNAME, FORM, DOB, DESTINATION, EXPIRY FROM (SELECT TOP 20 * FROM WELLGIRLS ORDER BY
RECORD_NR ASC,RECORD_NR ASC) ORDER BY RECORD_NR DESC,RECORD_NR DESC ).
As I dont have access to a MSSQL server, can you someone please validate whether all this would work
fine with MSSQL, and what problems/benefits (other than speed/security) I might have to deal with.
