<h1 class="topictitle1">Parameter markers</h1>
<div><p>Parameter markers act as place holders for values that are supplied
by the program when you instruct the data source to run the SQL statement.</p>
<div class="section"><p>When you use <strong>SQLPrepare</strong>, the statement that contains the
parameter markers is passed to the data source to be prepared by the SQL <a href="rzaikoptimizer.htm#optimizer">Optimizer</a>. The Optimizer builds a plan
of the statement and holds it for later reference. Each parameter marker must
be associated with a program variable (strictly, a pointer to a program variable),
and <strong>SQLBindParameter</strong> is used for this purpose.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p><strong>SQLBindParameter</strong> is a complex function. Careful study of
the relevant section in the <cite>Microsoft<sup>®</sup> ODBC Software Development
Kit and Programmer's Reference</cite> ISBN 1-57231-516-4 is strongly recommended.
For most SQL statements, using <strong>SQLBindParameter</strong> provides input information
to the function, but with stored procedures it also can receive data back.</p>
</div>
<div class="section"><p>After you have prepared the statement and bound the parameters,
use <strong>SQLExecute</strong> to set to the data source the current values of the
associated variables.</p>
