Hi Rick,
I have a application which requires MDAC due to the use of an MS ACCESS
database. To make it work I installed MDAC with Dan Kegel's winetricks script
from http://kegel.com/wine/winetricks. After the installation it was required
to set manually the ODBC driver registry keys for the Microsoft Access
Driver. I figured it out by comparing the ODBC registry branch of a native
Windows registry with Wine. AppDB contains a howto
http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=8869. Maybe that
helps you for MSSQL.
Regards,
Klaus
