How to set up connectivity to Microsoft SQL Server data sources with the latest JDBC driver releases

Question & Answer


Question

While following the documentation at https://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEP7J_11.1.0/com.ibm.swg.ba.cognos.ig_rolap.doc/t_ig_rolap_sql_connect.html, the file names do not match current releases of the MicrosoftTM JDBC driver. How can I correctly use a current MicrosoftTM JDBC release with Cognos Analytics?
