Martin,

I'd be interested in knowing exactly how or why it's harder to write stored procedures. In most cases you take your T-SQL, move the variables to parameters and wrap the...

Agree with Antares above. Get the drivers from IBM, install on your server. You can use DTS or a linked server to get the data.

One issue we've had is that...

Fishbarnriots has a good point. (what is with that nickname?)

We're in beta now and we should have this rolled out in a few weeks as we tweak the last few things.

If you want yours changed, send it...
