Does anyone know if and/or how to connect to a MS SQL7 database? I am still trying to make my Dept see the light and let me set up a production server using Zope and Linux. The biggest problem is that we and currently moving from Sybase on HPUX to SQL7 on NT (don't say it.. please). I need to reassure them that Zope will be able to get to the SQL7 server now or sometime soon. I am going to use MySQL as the demo but they are just going to say "what about the SQL7 stuff". Any help or advice would be splendid.
First of all, doesn't SQL Server use the same protocol as Sybase but different port numbers b/c Microsoft bought SQL Server from Sybase? Secondly, a Zope ODBC adapter is available for Win32 at: http://www.zope.org/Products/DA/ZODBCDA but I gather you are developing your site on Linux so that won't be of much help. -- Stephen Pitts smpitts@midsouth.rr.com webmaster - http://www.mschess.org
