We are looking for information regarding using C++ Builder with an AS/400 DB2 database. We currently have an application written with C++ Builder communicates through the BDE to an interbase database. What needs to be done to this application to have it communicate with a DB2 database (exact same structure) on the AS/400? Any information would be appreciated.

If you are using ODBC to connect to your Interbase database, then you should be able to drop the IBM CA/400 ODBC driver in using the same DSN and get it to work with minimal massaging... I know that we have an application which uses the ODBC API to talk to an AS/400 DB2/400 table and it works quite well.

Thanks for the information!!! Now that I know it can be done. Does anyone have any knowledge as to how different in functionality and in syntax is DB2 to Interbase?

Does anyone have any knowledge as to how >different in functionality and in syntax is DB2 to Interbase? I am afraid that it has been long enough ago since I have accessed DB2 that I don't remember... I do not remember it as being too much different than most SQL-92 compliant databases...
