Hey! After reading your email I jump there to get RC3 embedded and...
Please wait. RC3 is not available as embedded (yet).

You should use the ES the same way you use the server itself. You will just
be abble to connect using local connection.

I don't know about VB and ODBC. But the ES uses the same API, so you can use
the existing C API.

Some services are not available, but the backup/restore services are.

how to call it from an EXE. I seem to undertand that the API is the same as
the regular version, but can someone confirm this, and tell me where to find
a document that lists the C API so I can call them from a VB program
directly (ie. no ODBC etc.)?
