Maybe this would help:
http://www.easysoft.com/solutions/osx.phtml
Java used to come with one but in a quick test on my OS X 10.3 laptop,
this line of code:
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
threw a ClassNotFoundException so it may not be available in the Mac OS
X JVM unless there's some classpath issue that is required. I haven't
played with the bridge in a long time so I don't know where it stands.
Sun says specifically not to use this for anything but testing unless
there is no other alternative.

Thanks for all the response about the quickbooks question I had
yesterday. I did some further research and found a ODBC database
driver that runs on the quickbooks box that allows for SQL queries
onto the quickbooks database.
So now I am wondering if there is an ODBC adaptor for OS X and
WebObjects. I read that there was one for Windows, but the application
will be deployed on a Mac, so windows is out of the question. Will the
JDBC work on it?
www.qodbc.com is the adaptor I am looking at. I called their support
line for presales help, but they were unhelpful, and had no clue what
webobjects was. They advertise you can access QB data from any web
tool, and my preferred webtool is WebObjects.
Has anyone else programmed an interface like this yet? My employer
wants too be able to pull more info out of the QB datafile without the
need for somebody to manually do it. They have no problem buying this
driver as long as it can work.
I am reading through their PDF manual right now, but so far nothing
has been helpful.
Thanks once again.
