Apparently TDS was jointly developed by SyBase and Microsoft.  Therefore, MS 
SQL Server uses it, but MS has said Sql Server 2008 would be the last one to 
use it.

I had no luck downloading "Open Client" from SyBase, nor did I find any 
equivalent DB Library from Microsoft.  But there is http://www.freetds.org/ 
which does have free source to download, and it does have the sqlfront.h 
file in it.  I haven't had time to try to build the Qt TDS driver yet, but 
maybe this will do it.
