Hi,
I am building a proprietary database on the windows platform and want to
allow microsoft clients connect to it using OLEDB. As I understand, for
this to happend I need to make sure that the prop database talks TDS
format and responds to queries from clients just like microsoft SQL server
does.

Are the TDS libraries available on the windows platform? Are the TDS libs
good use for the problem I'm trying to solve?

As long as I can interpret the TDS protocol I can easily have the server
implement it. The hard thing is figuring out the packet formats for
various scenarios [login , logout etc etc].

I will appreciate any input.

Thanks,
Sharad
