We use the JSQLConnect from www.j-netdirect.com. It is not too expensive.

It seems that the link in
http://jakarta.apache.org/turbine/torque/mssql-howto.html needs to be
updated since it doesn�t point to the JDBC Driver download page.

I was kind of forced to use the bridge because I can't
find the MS driver.

I have spent way too much time searching the MS site
for their driver.  The download page would come up
with little content and a file size of 0 KB.  I ended
up sending them a message Friday saying that there was
a problem.  Now all references to the driver download
page are gone.  Hopefully they get it straightened out
soon.

Unfortunately, one of the project requirements is to
make use of an existing SQL server.  Otherwise I would
be using mysql.

Again, thanks to both Eric's for the help!
