JDBC Driver for MS-SQL ver 7 for JBOSS

[chiths]

Hello,
I have tried for the download of JDBC Driver for MS SQL 7 from Microsoft Site.

I have not been able to locate one. Is there any other free JDBC driver for MS-SQl ver 7.

I have been using weblogic's MS-SQL driver so far. I guess it is not compatible with JBOss.

If anyone has the JDBC driver, could you please mail me the link or the driver directly.

Unfortunately I believe Microsoft's JDBC driver (available the location below) is only for SQL Server 2000.

For a free implementation of a type 4 JDBC driver for SQL Server, you should check out the FreeTDS driver:

A number of JBoss projects that talk to SQL Server databases use the i-net Software Opta driver - this isn't freeware, however there is an evaluation version that you can download and test. We've used their drivers in our systems for some time, and they're very stable. (and no - I'm not getting paid to say that!)

Good luck,
