    1:
    heres a tutorial
    http://java.sun.com/developer/onlineTraining/Database/JDBCShortCourse/jdbc/jdbc.html
    note jdbc-odbc is not recommended for production code.

    2:
    All you need is the odbc tool that you have above and a jdk

    3:
    the bridge driver sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver is part of the jdk

    4:
    you install the driver at run time in your code

    5:
    there no configuration for jdbc-odbc outside of your java code,
    apart from setting up the data source in the ODBC Data Source Admin

    the reason i asked is i keep getting an sql exception and taught it may have been something to do with my JDBC:ODBC driver.

    The JDBC-ODBC bridge is a bit of a no-no. why are you using it? , can you not get real jdbc drivers for whatever database you're trying to communicate with?
