We have a application which communications via java to a .DBF file (using Java and Codebase for Linux). We are working on moving the database over to MS-SQL server (relational). What is the preferred method of communicating with a MS-SQL database using Java (JDBC, etc)? Can someone point me in the right direction?
Hi, you might try http://www.microsoft.com/sql/ . Somewhere on that page is a link to a JDBC driver. They have a win version and a unix version, and it seems to be free. But of course, we are talking about MS, so you should read any "fine print" you find. Good luck. --mioriticus "Think of it as evolution in action."
