Apples and Pears. They are two different things, ODBC is a (generic) database
client API for Win32 development, and JDBC is a (generic) database client API
for the Java platform. If you are using Java then Jaybird is the way to go,
but if you are developing for Win32 ODBC is one of a number of options you
have (and not the best IMO)
