The driver does not seem to be backward compatable(using Vonetix), I get
a message that I should try to locate a suitable driver when trying to accesss

I get a similar problem as mentioned by Yasir, here's the stack trace:
Exception in thread "main" java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000
Dri
ver for JDBC]This version of the JDBC driver only supports Microsoft SQL
Server
2000. You can either upgrade to SQL Server 2000 or possibly locate another
vers
ion of the driver.

Seems as if no backward compatibility!
Any clues?
if so pls. mail a response at manish.shukla@hpsglobal.com
