Hy, we are planning to develop an application (VB Client) that manages (mainly read/write) an IBM DB2 database running on MVS OS.
I've read on the Microsoft web site that you can connect a client application to a DB2 database through the Microsoft ODBC driver for DB2 (Msdb2ole.dll).
The Msdb2ole.dll file is included with SNA Server 4.0 Service Pack 3.
Our questions are:
- has somebody already experienced this connection?
- is the ODBC driver the best (and economical) way to achieve the connection ?
Thank you in advance, David
