Chapter 1: Before You Start
Decide What to Install on Each Computer
| Role | Work to complete |
|---|---|
| Gateway administrator | Install and configure the gateway, then maintain its shared SQL dictionary. |
| APPX administrator or developer | Use ASQL to make the required APPX file definitions available through that dictionary. |
| Excel, Access, WinSQL or report user | Install the client driver and configure AppxODBC; follow the relevant client recipe after the administrator has imported the definitions. |
Desktop users do not re-import shared definitions on every computer.
