Steve,

When you setup the DSN to MSSQL 200, did you use the standard JDBC
driver or an ODBC driver?

Have you tried an advanced install? (should eb the same as the way
FarCry was installed in version 4, the only difference being that
webmapping called "webtop" instead of "farcry").  I'm just wondering
if the problem has to do with a specific install type (ie. A bug in
the installer).
