You should better directly use CDatabase and CRecordset classes to open to the database, and read/write to the tables, or call SQL using different CRecordset objects.

You need only one CDatabase object, and attach it to different CRecordset instances (one at a time). You may directly use CRecordset and use GetFieldValue method in a loop (controlled by IsEOF method). Or you may inherit from CRecordset and implement DoFieldExchange. See here.

The database support in appwizard is ment for doc/view architecture. It will quickly help you to create ODBC classes.

Definitely you can use database in MFC applications. you can use ODBC/ADO to connect to the database and access it. You can refer these sites
