How do I use ODBC?

Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) is an industry-standard application programming interface for database access. The ODBC Driver for Oracle uses the ODBC interface to access data in database management systems. It allows an ODBC-compliant application to gain access to one or more data sources. ODBC drivers work under the control of an ODBC driver manager, which is a library that manages communication between the ODBC-aware application and ODBC drivers.
