want to know about database access using C as backend 1

[Guest_imported]

i would like to know how to access database files with help of C language.I would like to know the name of the files which are used for accessing database with C as backend.
I am using Turbo C compiler.

First, I would not recommend accessing the database files
(or raw devices) directly. What you need to do is get the
client "C" libraries specific to your database or as in
most cases, you can use ODBC for which you will need to
get the C libraries from MS. Once you have them, you can
use ODBC calls to connect to and access the database. You
can bind host variables to table datatypes and read/write
data directly to/from the database.
