Thanks Jennifer
I was looking for a way to actually send SQL commands to a database from a
dos box. The answer turns out to be isql which is a command line interface
to MSSQL Server. Using some commands like
isql -D MyDB -Q "Create Database MyTable"
or
isql -D MyDB -Q "Alter Table ......"
You can interact directly with SQL server from DOS.
I needed to do this because I am working on an installation for the product
I manage called eMPower, which if installed on NT with SQLServer installed
will actually create and populate an SQL database during the installation
process and create the DSN to go with it.

Subject: Re: OT: Command Line SQL7
If by "command line" interface, you mean a section of the program that will
let you enter and edit SQL statements, there should be a button in the
toolbar that will give you that. If that's not what you mean, I don't know
how to help you.
