C with ODBC

I am into a new project where I have to write C programs on UNIX
connecting to SQLServer through ODBC. I am not able to find sample
programs to learn about APIs. Can anyone point out to documentation
containing ODBC APIs for C.

TIA.Hi

Java and JDBC. (Caveat: Awhile back I heard Microsoft came out
with a JDBC driver for SQL Server, but I haven't heard anything about
how good or bad it is.)

Yes, you can use ODBC on Unix. See
http://www.sommarskog.se/mssqlperl/unix.html for a couple of products.
The page also include JDBC stuff.
