I wan to connect to sqlServer with C++.net

Connecting To SQL Server Using C++ ODBC Example
Aim
The aim of this Windows C++ tutorial is to connect to an SQL Server database using native C++ and perform a simple query. We will use a connection string with a DRIVER and not a DSN . This is a fairly simple C++ example and we will use the Windows command line compiler cl.exe. While it is simple, it demonstrates what is required for connecting and retrieving data using C++ and SQL DB, with some error handling too. It is upto the user to furthere explore these functions. Please have a look at SQL Server ODBC C++ Connection Pool for an ODBC connection pool in C++. Leave any questions or problems as comments and I will endeavour to answer them.

Assumptions
This article assumes that you have Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Express edition installed and configured. Please see Installing and Configuring SQL Server 2008 for more details. Also note that SQL Server does not have port 1433 enabled by default. Please see the afore mentioned link on how to do this.


Versions used in this example
