Thanks for getting back to me and apologies for the late reply.

As far as I know, the old MS library was last included with the SQL Server
2000 installer.

I'm not actually able to copy files off the company network here but let me
see if I can get the relevant files elsewhere and I'll send them on to you.

I believe the key files you would need are ntwdblib.dll, sqlfront.h, and
sqldb.h.

Regards,
Leonard
