Marc,

Do you know if using the Sprinta2000 driver with Orion provides
connnection pooling?  According to Inet-soft, their Opta driver
is the one that provides connection pooling, not the Sprinta driver.
But Orion also implements connection pooling, so which driver is 
really needed?  
What would happen if you used a driver that did connection pooling,
like the Opta driver, along with Orion?
