Can someone please direct me to where I can find a user’s guide for Natural for Windows?

I have downloaded the trial edition of ADABAS and Natural and now just want to do a simple query to start going through data and manuevering around, but the link in the e-mail they sent me does not work (not the first time).

All I want to do is a simple select statement from employees / vehicle tables, but is no simple task from what I can see. Even connectiing to a database is beyond me…

any other guides or manuals would be great

If you install Natural for Windows you can simply click on Help, then Contents, then, for example, select statements, where you could select the SELECT SQL statement.
