<HUGE SIGH OF RELIEF>
(Although will make doubly sure when I get my hands on the docs)
It is CF 4.5 Enterprise running on Apache. It has not been installed yet on
the client's machine and I am doing some background prep work before I talk
to the client's IT guy. When I first started searching for ways to make the
connection, I couldn't find anything. Even on Allaire's site, although, it
is quite possible I was not searching using the correct parameters, but I
though I would get something!
I was told that installation of Enterprise on a Unix box wasn't too
complicated and that the client's IT guy could handle it. I have only ever
installed it on Windows systems, so I'm a bit in the dark when it comes to
Unix installations.
Thank you for the heads-up! (you math guru, you! <grin>)

What version of CF do you have?
4.5 came with the Merant(Spelling) drivers for SQL server.
I have used them from a Solaris box running CF 4.5 and Netscape Enterprise.
