<FONT COLOR="#000000" FACE="Arial" SIZE="3">
<BR></FONT>
<font size="2">The client-server model implemented by the RF-TP™ software places responsibility for the database access and update in the server application.  The design and access for single or multiple databases
 is retained within the server software.  
<BR>
<BR>Typically, the client software sends a simple message to the server requesting verification of a field, retrieval of one or more records, or a database update.  The server software formats and issues
 the ODBC or SQL commands, and then transmits the reply to the client in a simple response message.
<BR>
<BR>The ODBC implementation uses externally defined linkages.  This allows a custom server application to be developed and tested on (for example) a Microsoft Access database on the development computer,
 and then deployed, without recompilation, using (for example) a remote Oracle database on a UNIX mainframe.</font>
