Jeroen:
The book, ODBC 3.5 Developer's Guide by Roger E. Sanders (McGraw-Hill) is probably the most definitive guide available. About a 1000 pages of detailed examples for C programmers plus detailed explainations of each ODBC function.
This book would be available at any major book store with a large computer section or over the Internet from Amazon.com, Computer Literacy, etc.
If you are new to ODBC and need to write production code, get this book.
