Connection to database

[dnvsrikanth]

Using some of the object-oriented languages like Java and VB we can
connect to a database. But by using C++ can we connect to a database?
If we can, how do we do so?

Yes, it's very likely.
If we can, how do we do so?

By reading the database product's documentation and
following its instructions.

Your question is not a C++ language question, so
is not topical here.

We don't -- at least not using purely ANSI/ISO C++, which is the only
topic for this newsgroup.

We need to find an appropriate middleware, such as ODBC, OLEDB etc. or
else use the proprietary CLI (call-level interface) provided by our
DBMS vendor.

Then, if we are still stuck after we have RTFM, we can post to an
appropriate newsgroup for the OS/middleware/API in question.
