Interactive SQL is a utility that ships with Sybase IQ that lets you execute SQL statements, build scripts, and display database data. Use Interactive SQL to connect to the server and run a sample query.
Sybase Central and Interactive SQL do not support jConnect. Use the SQL Anywhere JDBC Driver instead. jConnect is provided with Sybase IQ 15 for customer application backward compatibility purposes.
As a general rule, the jConnect driver cannot use ODBC data sources. However, Sybase Central and Interactive SQL are special cases. When you use the jConnect driver in either of them, you can specify an ODBC data source to establish a connection.
