sql-ms

sql-ms is an interactive autoloaded compiled Lisp function in `sql.el'.


(sql-ms &optional BUFFER)

Run osql by Microsoft as an inferior process.

If buffer `*SQL*' exists but no process is running, make a new process.
If buffer exists and a process is running, just switch to buffer
`*SQL*'.

Interpreter used comes from variable `sql-ms-program'. Login uses the
variables `sql-user', `sql-password', `sql-database', and `sql-server'
as defaults, if set. Additional command line parameters can be stored
in the list `sql-ms-options'.

The buffer is put in SQL interactive mode, giving commands for sending
input. See `sql-interactive-mode'.

To set the buffer name directly, use C-u
before M-x sql-ms. Once session has started,
M-x sql-rename-buffer can be called separately to rename the
buffer.

To specify a coding system for converting non-ASCII characters
in the input and output to the process, use C-x RET c
before M-x sql-ms. You can also specify this with C-x RET p
in the SQL buffer, after you start the process.
The default comes from `process-coding-system-alist' and
`default-process-coding-system'.

(Type C-h m in the SQL buffer for a list of commands.)
