Database 2's claim to fame is its role as the IBM information
delivery system at the 1996 Summer Olympics in Atlanta. The author
(SAS Institute) attempts to fill a perceived gap in the resource
literature beyond IBM manuals on DB2 for Common Servers (released
1985). Version 2.1, its present incarnation, has been used by
relational database application programmers developing software for
the OS2/Warp and AIX 4.0 since 1995. Spans database concepts and
application development basics, structured query language, cell level
interface (CLI) functions, and application programming interface
(API) functions. Appendices access SQL data structures, SQL
functions, and SQL State cross-reference.
