Programming Embedded SQL for C

Microsoft Embedded SQL for C (ESQL/C) offers programmers an alternative to writing Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 client applications with the DB-Library for C or Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) application programming interfaces (APIs). ESQL/C enables you to incorporate Transact-SQL statements into your C-language programs.

ESQL/C is mainly used for porting your existing applications from other databases to SQL Server.
