Summary description: An SQL Preprocessor for LaTeX
Announcement text:
SQLTeX is a preprocessor to enable the use of SQL statements in LaTeX. It is a perl script that reads one or more input files containing the SQL commands, and writes a single LaTeX file or multiple files based on the data read from the database. Those files can be processed with your LaTeX package. New in this release: * Process parts of the document conditionally using \sqlif and \sqlendif commands, * Process data by external scripts and use the output with the \sqlsystem command (by default disabled in the config file), * Support for MSSQL
This package is located at https://mirrors.ctan.org/support/SQLTeX More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/sqltex CTAN is run entirely by volunteers and supported by TeX user groups Please join a user group or donate to one, see https://ctan.org/lugs

SQLTeX – An SQL Preprocessor for LaTeX
SQLTeX is a preprocessor that enables the use of SQL statements in LaTeX. The SQLTeX perl script reads an input file containing the LaTeX source with SQL commands, and writes a LaTeX file in which the SQL commands have been replaced by the values from their execution. It is possible to select a field for substitution in your LaTeX document, or to be used as input in another SQL command. (When an SQL command returns multiple fields and/or rows, the values can only be used within the document.)
The default is to use MySQL databases, but Pg, Sybase, Oracle, Ingres, mSQL and PostgreSQL are also supported.
