Abstract: The present invention creates source code that can be used by an application program to manipulate a relational database management system. An executable procedure for use in accessing a database management system (DBMS) by other software, e.g. application software, is created by dynamically obtaining a set of data representative of and useful in manipulating the DBMS and a table within the DBMS from a preexisting DBMS system catalog; merging the set of data with pre-existing source code comprising a predetermined object source code template that comprises object methods and object properties useful in manipulating the table; and generating a source file containing the merged template object source code to create the executable procedure. It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract which will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.
