Gemini ODBC driver enables connection between Windows 9x/Me/NT/2000 operating systems and InterBase 4.x, 5.x, 6.x, and open-source Firebird database servers.
One of the most significant features of this software is its compatibility with Interbase 6.x, 5.x, 4.x, Firebird current releases (1.0 beta). It supports advanced InterBase version 6 features, including new data types. This ensures that users can easily access the data stored on InterBase and Firebird databases. Additionally, the software supports Unicode (Windows only) as well as SBCS/DBCS data. This ensures that users can handle different types of data.
The software also supports stored procedures from ODBC compliant applications and ADO. Procedures returning result sets and output parameters are supported. The stored procedure execution model is compatible with Microsoft SQL Server so that Interbase procedures can be called via a 'linked server' in SQL Server in 'RPC out' mode using native SQL Server syntax. This feature increases the versatility of the software.
Furthermore, the software supports forward-only and scrollable static cursors. Users can easily navigate and analyze data with these cursor types. The software also supports ODBC escape sequences for date/time, like escape character, outer joins, SQL and ODBC scalar functions. This allows users to customize their queries and obtain the desired results.
Lastly, the software is available in a Linux version. Users who prefer to work in a Linux environment can easily install this driver and access their data. Full information on the ODBC driver and links to order pages are located at the web-site. In conclusion, this software is a reliable and powerful driver that ensures users can access their data across different platforms and databases.
