About This Manual

This manual shows how to use basic and advanced structured query language (SQL) to access and manipulate the data in your databases. It discusses the data manipulation language (DML) statements as well as triggers and stored procedure language (SPL) routines, which DML statements often use.

This manual is one of a series of manuals that discusses the Informix implementation of SQL. The IBM Informix: Guide to SQL Syntax contains all the syntax descriptions for SQL and SPL. The IBM Informix: Guide to SQL Reference provides reference information for aspects of SQL other than the language statements. The IBM Informix: Database Design and Implementation Guide shows how to use SQL to implement and manage your databases.
