Install C/FRONT interface and check the folder...

there is sample code written in C...

And it is not so hard to write C++ wrapper which will allow you use the C/FRONT interface in same way as you are using C/AL code in Navision...

But do not forgt, that C/FRONT does not run triggers etc...

Can't i use n\odbc driver from c++ to access database?
Which one is better n\odbc or c\front?

Please help.

I personally would recommend sticking to the C/Front component. It will give you greater flexibility

C/Front is better, because you have same interface independent on DB backend (MS SQL or Native...) - and in both env. you have FlowFields etc...
