Re: JDBC driver for SQL server 7.0

If you're not adverse to open source software, then jTDS may meet your needs:

http://jtds.sourceforge.net/

From their "license" page:

The LGPL is sufficiently flexible to allow the use of jTDS in both open source and commercial projects. Using jTDS is considered to be dynamic linking; hence our interpretation of the LGPL is that the use of the unmodified jTDS source or binary does not affect the license of your application code.

Most commercial third party JDBC drivers support 7.0 -- Data Direct's latest version (3.6) support SQL Server 7.0 for example. http://www.datadirect.com/products/jdbc/matrix/jdbcpublic.htm.

Hi,
We need to connect a Java stand-alone program to conenct to a SQL server 7.0
database.
I can't find any drivers to connect to the database.

Can you please point me to a JDBC driver to access SQL Server 7.0?
