If your Zope is running on Windows, I think your best option is to use ODBC. If Zope is running on another platform, the only solution I have seen is to get FreeTDS compiled on your system (www.freetds.org), then you will need to compile Firstworks' (www.firstworks.com) SQLRelay (excellent product for load balancing databases, anyhow) and compile it with FreeTDS support. Set up SQLRelay to connect to MS SQL Server, you can test this connection directly with SQLRelay. The Zope package for SQLRelay comes with SQLRelay. It is not very direct as you have to define your SQL server connection in three different places. In FreeTDS, in SQLRelay and in Zope. I have not tried this setup, but I can say that I have only heard good things from those who have.
You could also look at using JPE python extensions for Java - which work with C-Python (i.e., ought to work with Zope) - and keep using your existing code. Tom P

I'll like to migrate my JDBC driver source code to Zope in order to use a native Microsoft SQL Server connection (using TCP/IP) but I don't want to start from scratch. Is there any Microsoft SQL Server native driver for Zope (pre-alpha, alpha, beta, etc)? I looked in Zope website and the only thing I found is a ODBC Database Adapter.
