It does whatever the Database ... directive tells it to do. In your
case, if it's an MS-SQL database you'll need to use DBD::ODBC to connect
It'll look something like
Database products products.asc dbi:ODBC:TCP/IP the.database.com
I don't use ODBC so the DSN syntax may be wrong, going by the sample
catalog.cfg.
