Which Jdbc for SQL Server 2000?

I thought I asked this question before, but I can't find it in the list so
I'm trying again.

I'm developing an application on Java JDSE 1.5 for Windows from Sun
Microsystems. I need to connect and interact with an MS SQL Server 2000.
Who's JDBC package do I use? (Sun's or Microsoft's). Or, do both work
equally well for small business applications?

Thankd
Jim

Microsoft's free type-4 JDBC driver is vastly superior to any jdbc-odbc
bridge from Sun. *Vastly*.

jdbc-odbc

And jTDS ( http://jtds.sourceforge.net/ ) is vastly superior to the
Microsoft driver (stability and performance-wise). You don't have to
take my word for it, use Google.
