Re: Is there a native JDBC driver for MS Access?
There are JDBC drivers for Access out there, but you have to pay for them: http://www.idssoftware.com/jdbcdrv.html http://www.atinav.com/products/aveconnect/MSAccess.htm (I have no idea how either of these performs though) --- chuck amadi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Adrian Beech wrote: > > >Um, okay then how stable is the JDBC/ODBC bridge?

Re: Is there a native JDBC driver for MS Access?
You may want to check out Sprinta2000 driver. I could get you the URL on monday or you can just look it up on a search engine. We use it for getting to MS-SQL. I expect that they could be used to get to Access. Shantul.

Re: Is there a native JDBC driver for MS Access?
Um, okay then how stable is the JDBC/ODBC bridge? As I previously mentioned in my initial posting some bits and peices that I've read suggest that this method of connecting to a DB back end is, or can be, a little dodgy. The comments basically revolved around the premise that the bridge is not capable of being threaded and it is considered by Sun to still be experimental. I got the impression that there is potential for data loss or corruption along with performance related issues. I guess I really need to know if it is reasonable to use Tomcat to host an environment that relies on this sort of DB connectivity.

Re: Is there a native JDBC driver for MS Access?
There is NO native Access Driver... for NON-Microsoft Platforms... OBDC only... It is possible to run a JDBC Driver to get to an ODBC Connection on a Microsoft Machine. For developers, I believe even Microsoft suggests you use Foxpro. There is a fellow who wrote a Class 4 JDBC Driver for Foxpro, and it works great I've been working with him on better UltraDev Integration. There will be File Locking Soon, that will allow native foxpro applications to seemlessly work with web applications. http://www.hxtt.net/jdbc.html todd http://www.wiserlabz.com collaborative effort to promote Novell and Open Source solutions Adrian Beech wrote: >G'day all, > >Is there a native JDBC driver for MS Access?

No, you are forced to use the JDBC/ODBC bridge or purchase one of the proprietary drivers available.
