So far I've installed the iODBC driver manager, but it seems there is no driver to support connection to a MS SQL server by ODBC. Ideally I would like to be able to test the connectivity before we commit to buy any particular product, as we are not sure this is the best way to implement things. The application is a web page, running Java servlets with ODBC connection to the database. The database must be a MS SQL server running ODBC, but I'd also welcome any suggestions regarding other (cheap) ways to connect to MS SQL from a Java servlet, or anything else which can be generated from an ASP development. The web stuff is being developed in ASP but can be converted to another format if required (has already been converted to Java servlets for testing). Thanks, Richard Grace ITworks Consulting Pty.
