ODBC Connection

[Bob]

Hi

Quick question. I have a CACHE link into an old mumps based system. In order
to access the old tables I install an ODBC driver and then access the tables
using access or some other DB tool. I can also query them from my
applications.

My question is....Can I connect to the database from my Java applications
without installing the ODBC driver on every machine.

To simplify things I have an access database sitting on a shared network
drive with the link tabls i need.

Thanks

J
