Hi,

There is a known bug with IE4 in that it doesn't execute static code in
classes properly.
JDBC drivers use their static code methods to register themselves with the
JDBC driver manager.

The work-around that works for IE4 and Netscape is to have a line of code
like this:

Class.forName("com.whatever.drivername").newInstance();

BEFORE you try to get a Connection object.

(I don't know the fully-qualified name of the freetds JDBC driver, so I
just wrote
"com.whatever.drivername" in the above code snippet.)

Hope this helps.
