Is anyone using Windows 7 with DB2 via ODBC? Any issues?
 
If your odbc driver is compatible with Windows 7, there should be no issues.

To which db2 do you want to connect (mainframe, *nix, win-based)?
 
I've connect to a mainframe via ODBC in XP and Vista through the standard IBM supplied ODBC drivers. I often have users ask for one off reports and use Excel and the external data function works via ODBC like a dream.

I can't imagine it would be any different with Windows 7.

Do ensure you are using the standard IBM supplied ODBC drivers (as Marc mentioned)- i have heard of problems when others were used.
