Compilation Tutorial: an example of assembly language programming

Assembly Language Programming Example one of these chapters, we have to bring together the knowledge we have learned. Specifically, let's write a program that uses ODBC APIs. For simplicity, I use Microsoft's Access database (Microsoft Access 97) in this program.

Note: If you are using a windows.inc of 1.18 and the following version, you should modify one of the minor bugs before you begin compiling. Looking for "Sql_null_handle" in Windows.inc, you get the following line:

Sql_null_handle equ 0L

Delete the "L" behind the 0, like this:

Sql_null_handle equ 0

This program is a dialog based program that has a simple menu. When the user selects Connect, it attempts to connect to the Test.mdb database, and if the connection succeeds, the full connection string returned by the ODBC driver is displayed. Next, the user can select View all Records command, the program uses ListView control to display all the data in the database. The user can also select the "Query" command to query for specific records. The example program will display a small dialog box prompting the user to enter the name of the person you are looking for. When the user presses the OK button or the ENTER key, The program executes a query to find records that match the criteria. When a user completes an operation on a database, you can select the "disconnect" command to disconnect from the database.

Now look at the source program:
