+is the CommsDat API</title><shortdesc>This topic is an intrdouction to the CommsDat API. Tools and applications
+use the CommsDat API to access the data in the Comms Database. </shortdesc><prolog><metadata><keywords/></metadata></prolog><conbody>
+<p>The CommsDat DLL implements the CommsDat API. Symbian platform
+loads the CommsDat DLL at boot time. Tools and applications do not load the
+DLL. </p>
+<p>The API made available by the CommsDat DLL is the only method that users
+can use to access the data in the Comms Database. The API maps between client-side
+representations of the data and the data stored in the database. </p>
+<p>Tools and applications see the data as a set of tables. A table is a set
+of records, where each record is an ordered set of fields. Each field holds
+a specified piece of information. A field at a given position in a record
+contains the same type of data in all records. You can consider that each
+field at a given location in a record is in a column. A table can also be
+called a record set. </p>

+</fig>
+<p>Tables, records, columns and fields are all CommsDat elements. An element
+is an item that can be stored in the Comms Database. </p>
+<p>The CommsDat API gives tools and applications a set of classes to retrieve,
+create and change the elements in the Comms Database. The API also gives the
+functionality to access the Comms Database. </p>
