I don't think Java can get to Access without ODBC.  The "native JDBC" driver
actually connects to the ODBC service to connect to access, I think.

I don't think the JDBC driver included with Coldfusion is actually a Type IV
driver, it's only a type 2 driver or something like that, so it requires
some native code to get to Access - in this case, the ODBC service.

I don't know if I'm right or not, because I haven't used Access in YEARS
(it's not suitable for web apps, IMO)

There is a "pure java" Type IV driver available from this company:

don't know anything about it really though, other than I'd seen it before.
