Hi nelly

No need to do much
I hope u are aware of JDBC-ODBC Driver and they are supported by sdk1.4

First create a DSN using ODBC in control pannel
later for JSP to connect to Database

use the following code

<%
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:<DSN name>")
%

provide DSN name after the second colon.
In this way you are connected to your data base and you can futher query your database using statement object .

For futher help
