Default Eclipse BIRT Report Designer 2.3.2 - SQL Server 2005 Connectivity

Forgive me if this is an obvious question but I can't seem to find a solid answer elsewhere.

I am trying to create a datasource in the open source Eclipse BIRT Report Designer. I am attempting to connect to my MS SQL Server 2005 database server and it seems there is no driver available. I don't see one available anywhere on the birt-exchange site either. I was looking at the report designer features comparison table in .pdf (http://www.birt-exchange.com/downloa...ison-Table.pdf) and I saw at the bottom of page 2 that there is no SQL Server driver in any of the eclipse products. It appears only the Actuate designers support SQL Server. Is that the case? I can only use Actuate Report Designer to connect to SQL Server?

Thank you for your help.
