If you have ODBC on your machine...
You do not need a DATABASE to develop and
test you JAVA/JDBC code.
Define your ODBC User Data Source Name as a MS Text File.
By default tables will be created you current dir.
ie.
String url = "jdbc
dbc:textDB";
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Hope this helps...
