JDBC is similar standard using java. There are 3 types of JDBC drivers currently. pure JDBC drivers ( rare ), some other type ( my memory is like a sieve ) & third type is what your party was enquiring about...a driver that acts as a bridge between JDBC & ODBC. all major databases have ODBC connectivity, so once you have a JDBC to ODBC bridge ready, you are more or less up & running.
