The ODBC Driver Manager provides the link between ODBC-enabled applications and ODBC drivers and is required by the ODBC driver.
The ODBC Driver Manager is not required to use the JDBC driver, but it may be convenient to use the ODBC Administrator included with it to define connection information used by the Type 2 JDBC driver.
The ODBC Driver Manager is installed automatically by many Microsoft products, including Windows, Office, and Internet Explorer. It is also included in the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC), along with ActiveX Data Objects, the OLE DB Provider for ODBC, and updated ODBC drivers for Microsoft SQL Server, Microsoft Access, and Oracle. Additional information about ODBC and MDAC is available from the Microsoft website.
The latest version of MDAC can be downloaded (at no cost) directly from the Microsoft website (www.microsoft.com).
