About This Document
This manual describes how to install and configure HP Neoview ODBC drivers for Microsoft
Windows, HP-UX, Linux, IBM AIX®, and Sun Solaris for SPARC®. The drivers enable applications
developed for the Microsoft Open Database Connectivity (ODBC) application programming
interface (API) to access the HP Neoview database.
