IIRC the JDBC to ODBC bridge is a type-1 JDBC driver (it's machine specific, not pure Java) so you can run it on a windows box, but not on the iSeries. I believe it assumes the JDBC driver and ODBC will be on the same box. Now, you could implement a server on the PC that accepted inbound JDBC requests and rerouted them to the JDBC-ODBC bridge, but that's not the same as having access from the iSeries natively. Of course you could use the pure-java drivers for Oracle or SQL Server or ... On the iSeries, but that wasn't the original questions. People have said you can use ODBC on the iSeries and I'm trying to understand that. -Walden ------------ Walden H Leverich III President Tech Software (516) 627-3800 x11 (208) 692-3308 eFax WaldenL@TechSoftInc.com http://www.TechSoftInc.com Quiquid latine dictum sit altum viditur.

How about a JDBC connection? Can't JDBC on one machine access an ODBC database on another machine? I admit I'm not overly familiar with this, but all the talk about how SQL is the world's database standard, and the extreme interoperability of all SQL databases made this seem perfectly reasonable to me.
