Nice overview of the two applications covered. One error in the article, JDBC is not in any way related to ODBC. There is a driver that will allow JDBC to communicate through ODBC, but that's just a driver. It's strongly recommended that anyone using Base prefer to use the native Java driver (also called Type 4) for whatever external database they wish to connect to, as this will be both faster and more reliable than the double-stack through ODBC.
