I'm not sure at Java version the MS VM is. I think it was 1.2, right?
Did you try the current MS JDBC driver (
http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/jdbc) which is a 100% Java driver?
But it could be that it requires Java 1.4
You might try the older SQL Server 2000 driver, which seems to even support JDK 1.1.8
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en
I usually download the "Unix version", because I then get an archive that I can simply unzip and don't need to run the dreaded MS setup procedure.
You might also try out jTDS (jtds.sourceforge.net) which has always been a 100% pure Java driver.
And you might get an older version from sourceforge that works with Java 1.2 as well.
