Mullin:
AFAIK, you still have to have JDBC somewhere in the picture, even if you're
using JSP or Servlets as the back-end to your applet. One thought (and NOT
one I recommend) is using the JDBC-ODBC bridge and then use the free ODBC
driver supplied with MS-SQL. In my experience not very reliable, but if you
just want to prototype something, it prevents spending money before you're
ready. You can then switch it out with a proper commercial JDBC driver when
the time is right.
