In general, the ODBC adapter may be old, but it works well and generally
without problems in my experience. In the Zope Book it's even claimed
that it's commercially supported! The point is just that it's single
threaded. If you need to use SQL Server 7 there also is a mxODBC
adapter, that claimed to be multithreaded. I don't know about its status
right now.
