I am afraid that there is no work-around. In basic there are two way to 
connect. Thru ODBC (that's what Bill wants) and directly to the middleware 
using an API call from / to libraries. The last option is, due the absence 
of the extra ODBC layer, much faster and stable but not available in 
sqlserver 2000. Microsoft simply isn't backwards compatible in this case.
