-Use OdxSQL to test SQL SELECTs and ODBC, JDBC and Network Services set up.
-Common ways to run OdxSQL
-  os> odxsql
-  os> odxsql envfile
-  os> odxsql dsnfile -odxnet -odbc
-  os> odxsql -?
-Explained:
+----
-| odxsql | Run OdxSQL.  Use the CONNECT command to connect to an Environment |
-| odxsql dsnfile -odxnet -odbc | Run OdxSQL and an OdxNET background process and connect to the DSN using ODBC |
-| odxsql envfile | Run OdxSQL and connect to the 'envfile' |
-| odxsql -? | Displays OdxSQL command line options |
-  * OdxSQL connects to an Omnidex Environment or ODBC or JDBC Omnidex File Datasource (DSN).
-  * OdxSQL automatically terminates commands and SQL Statements with a <cr>.
-    * Use the backslash [ \ ]statement continuation character for multi line statements.
-    * Use SET CONTINUATION OFF to use the semi-colon command and statement terminator.
-  * Use HELP <cr> to display a list of commands and SQL Statements.
+===== Overview =====
-    * Use HELP <command> to display the syntax for the command.
-  * Use SET ? to get a list of OdxSQL Set options.
+The OdxSQL program is a console-based utility for issuing Omnidex statements and viewing their results.  OdxSQL allows customers to test or execute nearly every capability in Omnidex.  Furthermore, OdxSQL can be easily integrated into shell scripts for use in automated batch operations.
-  * Use Show <table> to show information on a table with the tables's column layout.
+By default, OdxSQL executes statements against an Omnidex environment; however, OdxSQL can also be run as an ODBC or JDBC client tool.  In this scenario, the commands entered in OdxSQL are redirected to either the ODBC client interface or the JDBC client interface, which in turn a executed through Omnidex Network Services to the Omnidex server.  This allows a wide range of tests to be performed against these interfaces.  Note that two other programs, OdbcSQL and JdbcSQL, also provide similar capabilities.
-  * Create scripts
+===== Running OdxSQL =====
+On Microsoft Windows, OdxSQL is run from the Start menu or from the CMD shell, as shown below.
