A:
SQL Server 2008 is a relational database management system.
The SQL server native client is a set of dlls that let you access this system and are also used by it and other related software (such as SQL Server tools).
See some information here.

@Vishwanath dalvi - it is used internally by SQL server and by SQL Server tools. Why do you need to know more?

@Vishwanath dalvi - The client access libraries can be installed separately from the SQL Server product itself on a machine which just needs to connect to SQL Server - for instance a web server, application server or functional server.
