You can use the SQLCLI database tool to enter and execute SQL statements, execute database procedures and query information about the database instance. You can use SQLCLI interactively or import commands from a file and execute them in the background.
SQLCLI is a command row tool and can be used for all operating systems supported by the database system. You can access database instances on your local computer and on remote computers.
