| <p>
|
| The <a href="ext:sqlserver">SQL Server</a> is supported form version <strong>6.5</strong> onwards.
|
| Information about the versions prior to SQL Server 2000 however is difficult to find online, you'll
|
| have to resort to the documentation accompanying the database. Information for version 2000 can be found
|
| <a href="ext:sqlserver/manual-2000">here</a>.
|
| </p>
|
| <p>
|
| If possible, you should use the newest driver available. The older JDBC drivers (for SQL Server 2000 and
|
| older) provided my Microsoft, are known to be buggy and slow. The new SQL Server 2005 driver is preferred
|
| and can also work with SQL Server 2000.
