title: Sql Developer connector to Sql Server 2012 - error "Vendor code 207"
body: <p>I am trying to connect from Sql Develper 4.0.3.16 to Sql Server 2012, with jTDS connector jtds-1.3.1.jar.</p>
  
  <p>OS: Ubuntu 14.04</p>
  
  <p>Java:</p>
  
  <pre><code>~$ java -version
  java version "1.7.0_72"
  Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_72-b14)
  Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.72-b04, mixed mode)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>In the create connection window, when I test the connection it is successful.</p>
  
  <p>When I open the connection I can see all the databases. When I try to open a database that I am supposed to have a permission to open, I am getting the following error window:</p>

  <p>Any ideas?</p>
  
  <p>P.S. if Microsoft has a <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=11774" rel="noreferrer">JDBC driver</a> <code>sqljdbc4-4.0.jar</code> (which works for me when I connect from Java code to Sql Server 2012), then why do I have to use jTDS in order to connect Sql developer to Sql Server? It seems like the Microsoft jdbc driver is not accepted by Sql Developer when I try to used it as a connector.</p>
