Do you know if there is a version of client access that I can load
for
just the driver?

access on every PC that would go to the 400.


You'd only need client access on the web _server_. The clients aren't
taking to the iSeries, they're taking to the web server, only the web
server is talking to the iSeries.



Isn't there a plain old ODBC that I could use?


Nope. The ODBC "driver" is specific to the database you're connecting
to. Just like the .Net driver for iSeries, there's an ODBC driver for
iSeries. But again, it doesn't matter, The "client" isn't talking to
the
iSeries, only the server is.
