Does SQL Server 7 has anything to do with JVM?

I hava a MSDN Universal subscription. I was told the reason I can't get a co
py of SQL Server 7 from Microsoft is because the "Java settlement". Does any
one know why?
According to: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=fh;[ln];lifep
rodS, SQLServer7 is supported until Dec 31, 2005. I do not understand why Mi
crosoft is still supporting it but us developers can not get a copy!Hi,
The http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?id=fh;[ln];lifeprodS state
s
that SQL 7 will be supported till Dec 2005, but the availibility of SQL 7
was only till March 99.

first shipping date, not the last day it will be shipped.|||Hi,
I am sorry, it was my mistake.
Your understanding is correct.
The Softwares like (SQL 7) is still supported to benefit the existing users
of it.
