Tutorial on using JDBC under Windows

Given by Nancy McCracken, Mehmet Sen at ARL Database Tutorial on February 98. Foils prepared 7 October 97

This talk consists of a set of screen dumps that illustrate the process of setting up an example using JDBC with Microsoft Access on a PC. The JDBC driver is the JDBC-ODBC bridge.
  • create a simple database in Access
  • register the database with the ODBC bridge, primarily this is to create an ODBC "name" for the database
  • write a Java example that uses JDBC to access the database.
