+==== Access method ====
+  * The process of operating in a database to store or retrieve data
+  * The movement of physical data to and from a computer and its storage devices

+==== Account Support Engineer ====
+  * The DISC representative, also known as an ASE, involved in pre-sales customer support, providing early Omnidex design, administration and integration consulting services.
-**access method** - The process of operating in a database to store or retrieve data
+==== Active cursor ====
-The movement of physical data to and from a computer and its storage devices
+  * The current internal Omnidex Access work space. See also: CURSOR.
-**Account Support Engineer**
+==== Address ====
-The DISC representative, also known as an ASE, involved in pre-sales customer support, providing early database consulting services.
+  * A numerical identifier for distinguishing one network node from another.
-**active cursor**
+==== Aggregation index ====
-The current internal Omnidex Access work space. See also: CURSOR.
+  * Keys to data based on the SQL functions COUNT, SUM, MIN, and MAX. See also: Aggregation/Sorted Key Index.
-**address**
+==== Aggregation table ====
-A numerical identifier for distinguishing one network node from another.
+  * See Summary Table
+==== Aggregation/Sorted Key Index (ASK) ====
+  * A type of Omnidex index that facilitates extremely high speed aggregations used primarily in OLAP and data warehousing applications. Aggregation/Sorted Key Indexes are commonly referred to as ASK Indexes.
+  * ASK Indexes generally combine multiple criteria fields along with one or more metric fields into a single composite index. ASK Indexes can also be used to provide sorted and linkage access to data files such as flat files that do not provide native sorted indexes.
+==== Aggregations ====
+  * Summarizations of data, e.g., AVG, MIN, MAX, SUM, COUNT
+  * The process of summarzation (sum), averaging (AVG), finding the minimum (MIN) or maximum (MAX) values.
-**aggregation index**
+==== AND criteria ====
-Keys to data based on the SQL functions COUNT, SUM, MIN, and MAX. See also: Aggregation/Sorted Key Index.
+  * Multiple criteria values or predicates that rows must match all or will not qualify.
-**aggregation table** See Summary Table
+==== API ====
+  * Application Programming Interface: A collection of callable routines providing specific functions. Omnidex provides two different APIs.
-**Aggregation/Sorted Key Index (ASK)**
+Omnidex supports four different API Interfaces:
-A type of Omnidex index that facilitates extremely high speed aggregations used primarily in OLAP and data warehousing applications. Aggregation/Sorted Key Indexes are commonly referred to as ASK Indexes.
+  * ODBC - Open Data Base Connectivity
-ASK Indexes generally combine multiple criteria fields along with one or more metric fields into a single composite index. ASK Indexes can also be used to provide sorted and linkage access to data files such as flat files that do not provide native sorted indexes.
+  * JDBC - Jave Data Base Connectivity
+  * OA - OmniAccess
+  * CLOA - Client Omnidex Access
-**aggregations**
+==== ASK ====
-Summarizations of data, e.g., AVG, MIN, MAX, SUM, COUNT
+  * Aggregation Sorted Keywork Index.
-The process of summarzation (sum), averaging (AVG), finding the minimum (MIN) or maximum (MAX) values.
-**AND criteria**
+==== ASK Index ====
-Multiple criteria values or predicates that rows must match all or will not qualify.
+  * See Aggregation/Sorted Key Index
-**API**
+==== ASK Order By Optimization ====
-Application Programming Interface - a collection of callable routines providing specific functions. Omnidex provides two different APIs.
-SQL Language Interface with Omnidex extensions, which is callable through ODBC, JDBC and OmniAccess applications (via oaexecsql).
-Omnidex Access API, commonly referred to as the OA API.
-**ASK Index**
+==== ASE ====
-See Aggregation/Sorted Key Index
+  * Account Support Engineer.
-**asynchronous process**
+==== Asynchronous process ====
-A process whose execution proceeds independently of other processes, e.g. as a background process.
+  * A process whose execution proceeds independently of other processes, e.g. as a background process.
-**atomic data**
+==== Atomic data ====
-Information at the most simple level of detail, having low granularity. See also: granularity.
+  * Information at the most simple level of detail, having low granularity. See also: granularity.
-**AUTOPSEUDOCOLUMNS**
+==== AUTOPSEUDOCOLUMNS ====
-AUTOPSEUDOCOLUMNS causes Omnidex to automatically construct pseudocolumns from MDK composite keys.
