DbQuery

Queries an ODBC database. {stub}

New to 4.0

In Analytica 4.0 (but not earlier releases), a local index can hold the record set. This means you can create a user-defined function that bundles several database query steps. For example:

 Function DbFullTable(connectionStr, sql: text)
 Definition:
    Index Rows := DbQuery(connectionStr, sql);
    Index Cols := DbLabels(Rows);
    DbTable(Rows, Cols)

This user-defined function returns the full relational table in a single call, using local indexes, Rows and Cols.
