Subject: Connecting to a remote database



I am connecting to an AIX Partition that is running a DB2 database. I
have put a RDB Entry in and when I do STRSQL I connect to it. In my
RPGLE program what would be the syntax look like to make the connection
via the program? 

D DB2USER         s             10a   inz('db2usr')
D DB2PWD          s             10a   inz('db2pwd')

C/EXEC SQL
C+ CONNECT TO ACTSASDB USER :DB2USER USING :DB2PWD
C/END-EXEC

Above is just a wild guess I took. I would appreciate any and all
assistance.

Thanks
