Answer to Question 1

There are two types of conformance levels within the ODBC standardODBC conformance and SQL conformance. ODBC conformance deals with the features and functions that are available to the application program through the DBMS driver API. The SQL conformance standard deals with the SQL statements, expressions, and data types that the driver can process. The reason for these levels is to accommodate the varying ability of different vendors to comply with the power and expressiveness of the ODBC standard and the SQL language. Without these different levels of compliance, the ODBC standard would either be too simple to be very useful, or too rigorous for many vendors to comply with.
