  // Create an external DB connection

  // Log in

  var SqlDB = FCSession.CreateSQLExec();

  SqlDB.OpenConnection("sql", "sa", "sa", "gaffer", "cl10");

  // Query for a simple table (with one column)

  // Iterate through it and print out the data

  SqlDB.ExecuteReturnRows("select * from foo");

  while (SqlDB.Records.EOF != true)

  {

    Response.Write ("Value: " + SqlDB.Records("out_col"));  

    SqlDB.Records.MoveNext();

  }

  // Now add a row, and close the connection

  SqlDB.Execute("insert into foo values (55)");

  SqlDB.CloseConnection();

Visual Basic:

The code in this example is written in Visual Basic.

  Dim sql_db As FCSqlExec

  Set sql_db = fc_session.CreateSqlExec

  sql_db.OpenConnection "sql", "sa", "sa", "gaffer", "cl10"

  sql_db.ExecuteReturnRows "select * from foo"

  sql_db.records.MoveFirst

  While sql_db.records.EOF = False

    MsgBox sql_db.records("out_col")

    sql_db.records.MoveNext

  Wend

  sql_db.Execute "insert into foo values (44)"

  sql_db.CloseConnection
