RE: Retrieve AS/400 Data Using VB

Funny you should ask as I have pestered the list with that very issue
lately.  I have some Visual Basic code that will do what you want, and then
some.  My program dynamically creates a DSN based on the system and library
name so as to not have to depend on the DSN not being deleted by accident.

It's version 4.0 code, but it works.

I'm having a brain cramp today -- does anyone have a quick example of Visual
Basic code that will use ODBC and an existing DSN to open a data file on the
AS/400?
