Bhavin,
It's in the documentation and website for each database. Is there a particular one you are looking for?

Note that the "driver string" is typically the fully qualified class name of the database vendor specific JDBC driver.

Dirk is correct. I was thinking of the URL connection string.

Hi frnds,

Thanks for the reply...ofcourse, info of driver will be available in doc of database..but my curiosity is to know about list of db with driver string..or if any standard is there? and database wise for diff version, string will be different? depreciation of that class is allowed?

while in ODBC that is not case because u can visualize it and select it...can i fulfill this purpose even with Java?
