SQL Server 2000 JDBC driver??

[Steve Grosz]

I know that Microsoft offers a JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000, but its
a EXE file. I'm also under the impression that the actual jar file
needs to be copied to a specific location in order for CFMX 7 to take
advantage of it.

Does anyone know what this jar file is called?

Thanks,
Steve

If I remember correctly it's an exe, but all it does is expand things
onto your hard drive. Once it's expanded you should be able to see the
jar file, which you can put anywhere so long as you tell CFMX 7 where
it's located. There are three jar files:
msbase.jar
mssqlserver.jar
msutil.jar

Put those somewhere and add them to CF's classpath and you should be
good to go.

It may have simply expanded in the past, but now it seems to install,
and doesn't tell you where its installing to.

I'll look for those files.

Thanks
