I had a job to do this a few years ago, and while I'm a bit hazy about how it ended up, I think what I needed to do was create an Access link database - all the tables linking to tables in the MYOB database using the driver provided by MYOB. Then you create a CF datasource on the Access database.
Once I had it going, it was reliable. It wasn't under a lot of stress - the job was to update my online SQLServer database with updated customer and orders information from the MYOB system once each night. It never had to handle multiple connections or anything like that. How it might work under any kind of stress I'm not able to say. I never managed to make CD WRITE to the MYOB database though which was the second half of the job. Neither MYOB nor Adobe nor anyone else was able to make that happen, despite many promises and claims. So it's good that you dont need to do that this time. If you do, expect to spend a fair amount of time frigging about trying to make it all work.
