Use
If you specify the option SQL Mode, you can use the SAP DB ODBC driver in a different SQL mode. This means that the driver can process not only the ODBC and SAP DB-specific SQL syntax, but also the ORACLE or DB2 syntax, for example.
Specifying this option can simplify the customization of SQL statements during the migration from ODBC applications from other database systems.
