Free jdbc/odbc driver for SQL Server 7

Does such a thing exist?

Hi everyone,

I normally hate to make this kind of post but I've been searching for ages and my hair is almost all pulled out.

Is there a free jdbc/odbc driver for SQL Server 7 (for example, for use with Tomcat)? I know Microsoft has a free one for SQL Server 2000, but I can't find one for SQL Server 7 anywhere.

If you don't want to publicly plug a product, you can sticky me.

Thanks in advance!

I havn't tried this one myself, but you could try looking at:

[jtds.sourceforge.net...]

its a type 4 driver (excellent! - just drop the jar into your classpath and off you go), so no slow ODBC, but its alpha (0.3). Looks like its based on an earlier open source project.

Have you tried the MS SQL server 2000 one with version 7? Its a long shot captain but it just might work.......

I'm totally guessing, but I would have thought that it would would still work for most common features.

Thanks, that driver works well with my project (and no, the MS SQL server 2000 one doesn't).
