Chapter 1. Introduction
1.1. Overview
The Cogent DataHub program has built-in scripting capabilities (see DataHub Scripting), which among other things let you connect the DataHub program to any ODBC-compliant database. This guide assumes a basic understanding of DataHub scripting, and provides the specific information you will need to script connections between the DataHub program and an ODBC database.

DataHub ODBC scripting uses wrapped MSDN functions. Therefore, this documentation often links to and refers to the MSDN documentation. You may need to conduct a search in that documentation to find the corresponding function. |
| |
The tutorials in this manual use SQL commands to query the database. The syntax for these commands may vary slightly from one ODBC database to another. If a given tutorial doesn't work right away, check the syntax of the SQL commands in the tutorial against the syntax that your database uses. |

Although DataHub Scripting is included with every DataHub license, ODBC scripting requires that the Database feature be licensed as well. |
