Connections
Three different types of connections allow Data Access to function:
*The communication channel between the application and the DBMS, which is called an SQL session.
*The mapping of the data source to the database tables.
*The connection between the data source and the display gadgets.
The connection procedures in this section are presented to help you understand the underlying concepts and as a reference section for future use. You should not attempt these procedures at this point, as you will be doing them in the following tutorial chapter.
