  This is a general question. Is it possible to integrate SQL with C programs?

  I am not a C programmer, but was asked if there is a way to do this. Any feedback would be helpful.

  We are currently running SQL Server 2008 R2.

  Thanks

  if the question is can a C program connect and use a SQL 2008R2 database, then yes; the ODBC drivers like the SQl Native Client can be used by a C program to connect and select/insert/update/delete etc.

  if you have a different meaning for "integrate" than that, can you explain further?
