I guess it's hard to imagine a generic, windows-based database access
tool that doesn't do ODBC. It would, of course, mean that Stylus
Studio could reach out to just about any database on the planet instead
of just a select few.

comes into the world ready to make language out of noise,
sense out of chaos. Our capacity for imposing meaning, he
thought, is programmed to unfold the way a butterfly's wings
unfold when it escapes the chrysalis, ready to fly. We are
biologically driven to create meaning.

You will be able to use it for free from inside Stylus Studio; you would need a license if wanted to deploy your own application that accesses the SequeLink Server.
No additional purchase is necessary to access ODBC data sources.
As explained in document I pointed:
"
Before You Begin
Before starting this process, you must have installed DataDirect SequeLink SocketServer on the machine you wish to use as your data source. The DataDirect SequeLink Socket Server installation package is available here.
"
Sequelink Server is available for free here http://www.stylusstudio.com/component_downloads.html
Stylus Studio embeds the SequeLink client, see DB to XML.
Ahh! Thanks.
SQl Server Oracle, Informix and DB2 can be connected to. Only if you want some other type of ODBC, say Access, then you need the Data Drect SequelLink on the machine with the DBF files. I get it now.
