Noobie, please help!

Hello all,

since I'm a noobie, and, been struggling for a week to make a simple c
program
 that contacts MSSQL Server 2000 (from a WIN-XP machine) for a week with
zero success..

my boss insists that no ODBC will be used so I presume that db-lib is the
answer but,
can't get the right configurations for compiler/linker and there is the
'tds_sysdep_public.h' that is missing (there is one with .in ending,
guessing it's for VC++)..
I'm using Eclipse CDT (again, win XP) with MinGW....

what are all these warning after building FreeTDS from Dev-C++ project?

are there no explanations/tutorials for begginers like myself?

Thanx,
Gal
