You need a type 4 JDBC Driver.  I've used the following product to connect
to an MS SQL server from my AS/400.

i-net OPTA 2000 Version 2.05 for MS SQL Server.  http://www.inetsoftware.de

I meant the SQL Server DB.  Sorry.  I guess if it's an MS product I'd better
get it now or it won't be available soon.  :)
