This manual is intended as reference material for users developing application programs using SymfoWARE/RDB. 

First-time users of SymfoWARE/RDB should read the RDB User's Guide: Database Definition and the RDB User's 
Guide: Application Program Development before reading this manual. These manuals provide readers with an 
overview of SymfoWARE/RDB databases and the functions of SQL statements. These manuals also provide an 
overview on specifying SQL statements and developing application programs. For an explanation on how to develop 
application programs using SymfoWARE Programmer's Kit, refer to the Esql Programmer's Guide. 

This manual uses concrete examples to explain many kinds of data manipulation using SQL statements. Readers do 
not need to master the entire contents of this manual all at once. Instead, read through the manual to gain an 
overview of the kinds of processing that can be performed using SQL statements. Then, reread the parts of this 
manual related to writing application programs. In explanations of the syntax of SQL statements, this manual 
emphasizes ease of understanding rather than giving precise details about the syntax. For details about the syntax of 
SQL statements, refer to the SQL Reference Guide. 

Examples of specifying SQL statements given in this manual are written in C unless otherwise specified. Keywords in 
the explanations appear in Gothic type. In addition, standard terms are added to the descriptions of SQL statements. 
Refer to these terms when referring to the reference manual.
