The SQLServerSelect function creates a dialog that lets the end user select a database server.

This function is in the SQLRT.obl file for InstallScript projects, and in the SQLCONV.obl file for InstallScript MSI projects. If you are using the SQL Scripts view in InstallShield, the appropriate file is automatically added to your linker settings. However, if you are not using this view, add the appropriate file to your linker settings: On the Build menu, click Settings, and then add it to the Libraries (.obl) box.
