I believe what you are trying to do is covered in "The Minimum You Need 
to Know About Qt and Databases."

https://www.theminimumyouneedtoknow.com/qt_book.html

You can see if WorldCat shows a university with a copy you get check out.

https://www.worldcat.org/

They've done something to their search engine recently though because it 
doesn't show you all of the libraries anymore and it doesn't find all of 
the titles easily.

There is a short (57 page) preview of the book on ScribD.

https://www.scribd.com/document/156381069/The-Minimum-You-Need-to-Know-About-Qt-and-Databases

This was written with an early version of Qt 4.x and there were bugs in 
QSqlDatabase it had to work around. On the page for the book is a 
download link to the source code for the book if you just want to muddle 
through.

You should find what you are looking for there though. I distinctly 
remember doing it. I've had to do it at many sites.
