#include <filename.h>

means the file has to be in /usr/include....

#include "filename.h"

means to search in the current directory for the file, then look in any directory speficied by cc -I<directory>

find / -name sqlext.h -print 2> /dev/null

If this produces no results, then you need to reinstall your development kit (ot whatever it is called for your db). Then use the quoted syntax: #include "sqlext.h"
and use the -I option on the compiler.
