I have been scouring the internet and six different books (half c++, half sql) and have been unable to find even one solution that is without errors. I have been searching, copying, writing, editing, mixing, matching, downloading, copying, pasting, and everything-else-ing I can think of for the last three days. I have tried SQLAPI++, but cannot figure out how to get it working after a certain point. No matter what I try, I get "error LNK20..: unresolved external symbol ...", with the fewest number of errors being 1 and the most being 23. Any specific help, walkthroughs, books I can order, code examples I could go by, project parameters, or anything at all would be immensely helpful. I can't waste too much more time on this part of the project. If it would be helpful to post some of my code, please ask, but right now it isn't much.
