I think that Jenny said: >>I have just started learning Jess. >>Could anyone tell me how to connect Jess with MYSQL or Microsoft Access. Is it possible?
Hi Jenny, You certainly can connect Jess to a database -- actually Jess has no impact on whether you can connect to a database or not -- this is really a "bread and butter" Java task. To connect to any database (well, most databases) with Java, just use the JDBC API. Here are some resources: Use Microsoft Access with Java How do you connect to an Access-based database with JDBC? http://www.javaworld.com/javaworld/javaqa/2000-09/03-qa-0922-access.html JDBC Data Access APIs (I'm not sure how up-to-date some of these are. You may have to use the JDBC-ODBC Bridge to connect to MS Access) http://servlet.java.sun.com/products/jdbc/drivers Unless using MS Access is a requirement, I'd recommend MySQL www.mysql.com . I use it all the time: works great and the price is right! If you are unfamiliar with JDBC, you might want to try: http://www.javaranch.com/drive/jdbc/index.jsp Hope this helps!
