I would recommend that you reconsider. If you've already got the expensive
Oracle server, you might as well use it; I expect you'd find an overall
savings on resources.

Connecting to Access databases, or other ODBC datasources for that matter,
is a bit more complex in CFMX than in previous versions of CF. You'll still
be using the same ODBC drivers you used before, but in addition, you'll be
using a service (SequeLink) to let CFMX talk to those ODBC drivers.
