MS is a problem...   BUT   ......

SQLHANDLE error is not solved by windows.h   nor by stdafx.h

defination of SQLHANDLE is missing from any .h files available with DM folder

DM has to act very quickly...  its a request from a well-wisher.

Yes, it seems that SQLHANDLE is missing in original DMC header files (again, they are the same headers that shipped with SC 7.5 in 96), in my newer PSDK SQLHANDLE is defined.

try following instruction on http://cmeerw.org/prog/dm/ms_sdk.html to integrate latest PSDK to DMC

THANK YOU Mr Nic Tiger for the help!   I appeciate your help!!
I appreciate more, because, you offered a link to the soultion, when you are not
from  DM core developer team.

Do you have more links / tips for me? ( DM C++ related )

I am new to DM & I could not scan online forums for this issue.
Mr Walter should have suggested similar solution at first instance.

DM C++ compiler is only for windows and not for linux or mac.
SQL header files are NOT the property of MS. DM can store these headers and lib/
dll files in a seperate folder.

When someone purchses CD from DM, is it his  mistake to expect files included in CD ?

DM should be more professional. No one will not mind to pay bit more compensation for such professionalism.

And what have you done for society?

DM is one of the most standard-compliant codes out there as well as having relatively fast compile and execution times.  If you want to play with the PSDK, go back to VB.

Mr 'Me'

You are disturbed for DM's limitions ....

Attack  is not the best defence for this case.
Be in my shoes, wou will no where it pinches.

Your comments are not appreciated by me and Mr Nic will  feel insulted by your request to "go back to VB". Mr Nic Tiger traced solution for me, so, that myself and many others will enjoy DM experience.

If you suggest that  using PSDK means going towards VB, then let me assure that, C++ developers community will no go to VB, but it will stay  away from DM.

Suggest any means of compiling 3 lines of code with DM headers and DM compiler.
#include <sql.h>
#include <sqlext.h>
SQLHANDLE EnvHandle;

In  17 yrs of C++ experience, and 8-9 yrs with ODBC/SQL usage, I have not come accross such error generated by BC/VC/Intel/watcom compilers.

I purchased DM C++ CD, bacause, My client can not afford VS or BC studios.
And After handing over the project, source code will be maintained by my client.
So, DM came into the scene.

Even though DN has standing in market, it is not one of the top 10 compilers appreciated by C++ developers community. And, shifting  to VB is not going to improve  market share and so DM's recognization.

Please refer to Evans Data and DevX.com  reviews of top 10 IDEs & C++ Compilers. http://nl.internet.com/c.html?rtr=on&s=1,2ca8,1,1ywc,8v9t,kgi0,36tu

What developer has done for the society is irrelevant ... They are paid for development,by thier clients/employers and not paid for struggling for compiling 3 lines codes ( that too with faulty error messages )

No Developer will like to waste his energy & society's resources to trace
solution for faulty compiler error messages.
Conserving resources & energy is his contribution for the society.

Nice that ID(D)E study... Can anyone tell me how to compile my C/C++ code with Macromedia DreamWeaver MX... ;-)

Than things like Code::Blocks www.codeblocks.org, CodeForge www.codeforge.com KDevelop, Ultra Edit Studio www.ultraedit.com, Multi Edit www.multiedit.com, CodeWright and others etc seem to be completely missing.

If they want to do a proper study they should include a list of all the ID(D)E's and tell how many people they actually have date from that use them... Better... people that use more than 1 and actually can compare...
