Hi jwalin,<br />
<br />
After downloading a BIRT Designer, find a JDBC driver for SQL Server 2000, (these are already included in the Actuate BIRT Designers) <br />
<br />
and then follow the instructions at <a class='bbc_url' href='http://www.birt-exchange.org/documentation/BIRT_231/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=connecting.2.1.html'>http://www.birt-exchange.org/documentation/BIRT_231/wwhelp/wwhimpl/js/html/wwhelp.htm#href=connecting.2.1.html</a><br />
<br />
These steps will show you how to point at your JDBC driver and make a connection to your data source.
