The first uses ODBC, the second uses a JDBC driver that can talk directly to the Access JET database engine. That driver is of course installed with CF. > Can additional JDBC drivers be installed in CF so that you > could set up data sources from within the CF Administrator? Yes, this is the reason you have an "Other" option within the CF Administrator. Read the documentation for your JDBC driver to figure out how to build the appropriate JDBC URL, place the JAR file in your lib directory, restart CF, and create the datasource with the aforementioned JDBC URL.
