RE: .NET and the iSeries

If you want to use the addins, go ahead, but as you found out, they need
the DB2 Connect drivers, and that's not free.

OTOH, Client Access has .NET drivers built into it. I've used them
successfully from .NET many times. You don't get the pretty dialogs to
help you build code, but then again, I've never liked IBM's generated
code. 

Make sure .NET is selected in CA setup so they're on your machine and
then add a reference to the "IBM DB2 UDB for iSeries .NET Provider" and
code away. The classes are all w/in the IBM.Data.DB2.iSeries namespace.
