Since you talk about SQL Server I assume that you are under Windows.

If it is the case then you can definitly use ODBC to access your database.
Have a look at the Database binding on my homepage. I've sucessfuly used

will be able to add the missing features and contribute them back to the

Look there for ODBC.
