The MiniSoft JDBC driver supports connection from the HP3000 to itself or
another HP3000 using JDBC calls. We also allow the same applications,
servlets, and applets running on most platforms to connect to the HP3000.
Our web site (http://www.minisoft.com/pages/middleware/jdbc/jdbc.html)
provides samples, a manual, and you can download a trial copy.
