The high-level ODBC access is meant to hide the details from people who
simply want to get access to their ODBC data the simplest way possible.
(You create a "non-filePro file" which maps to the ODBC data source,
and you can then access it almost like any filePro file.)

The low-level ODBC access, on the other hand, hides nothing, giving you
the ability to do just about anything ODBC offers, at the expense of
requiring that you know the ins and outs of SQL and intricacies of ODBC.
