Kimberly,
Take a look at the FreeTDS JDBC driver for MS SQL Server:
http://www.freetds.org/download.html
Follow the link to the ftp site. The Jan 2000 jar file appears to be the
last 'release' version but it may have some problems depending on the
features you need. We've recently used the Sept 2000 snapshot, which as I
recall has to be built. There were a few minor changes, declaring certain
classes abstract, to get it to compile in our environment. I can dig out
the details if you really need it. For the most part we are using
HypersonicSQL for prototype and Interbase for production databases.
Regards,
Earl
