Hi Jeff

I've got that far - I just don't know what needs putting in next! I
select the iSeries DB2 OLE DB as provider, and set the system I'm
connecting to. It then prompts for catalog, but any combination of
library and/or file results in errors testing the connection (with a
valid user id/passwd).
