About the Infor OLE DB Object Services User Guide

This document is intended primarily for software developers who want to use OLE DB Object Services to retrieve Lawson ERP application data for their own applications.

This guide explains how to use the Query Builder that is part of the OLE DB Object Services release 10.0.3 or higher. If you have an earlier version of the OLE DB Object Services (release 9.0.1.x), see earlier editions of this user guide for documentation on the Query Builder.

If you want to use the 10.0.3 Query Builder to create queries for data from Infor Landmark applications, see a separate user guide (OLE DB Object Services for Lawson Landmark Technology User Guide.

The sections of this document that refer to a specific consumer, such as Visual Basic or Microsoft ADO, provide details only about the Infor Lawson interface. For information about using a particular third-party product, see that product's documentation.
