The tool allows you to create high-performance connections thanks to the usage of ODBC API and various implemented data types.
For example, you can easily work with integer, real, numeric, char, as well as with timestamp, decimal and long varchar data types.
Thanks to the API functions, the tool allows you to access a particular environment, connection, statement or descriptor handle. You can also connect to a specific driver by data source name and other authentication details.
