The vsql Client for Windows

The Vertica vsql client for Windows is installed as part of the Client Drivers and Tools for Windows.

There is no shortcut for the vsql client. Before you can start using vsql, you must add the vsql executable to the Windows PATH environment variable. The method for altering the PATH environment variable depends on the version of the Microsoft Windows operating system you are running. After you have made the change to your PATH environment variable, start a command window and type vsql -? at the command prompt to start vsql and show the help list.

For information about editing the Window PATH environment variable, see How do I set or change the PATH system variable?
