Group,
I need to set up a ODBC connection to a DB2 database and am not sure what driver I can use?
Thanks for the help.

Hi,

You need to configure a DB2 drive in Control Panel/Administrative Tools/Data Sources(ODBC)

You will probably need to know the Host Name and Port.

I know that much already. When in ODBC Data Source Administrator I click 'Add' and I don't know which driver to select from this menu. None of them mention DB2 database. I have found something on Microsoft website that mentions Microsoft ODBC Driver for DB2 but I can't find a place to download it.

Oddly enough, my DB2 driver is not so identified in the ADD list. It happens to be Shadow Direct 32-bit by NEON.

I immagine that your Database Administrator ought to be able to advise you.
