I've never been a big fan of IBM's sample code, but it does show how
it's done. However, that is COM and VB6 code, not VB.NET. Yes, via
COM-Interop you could call the Client Access COM objects, but I would
suggest a different way, especially from .NET.

Create an RPG (or CL, or Cobol, or whatever) program that retrieved a
DataQ entry and returned the value as a parameter. Then simply describe
that program to SQL as a stored proc. Then tell your VB.Net programmers
to call the stored proc via the .NET data provider just like any other
stored proc and just like they are reading/updating data. There's no
reason to special case the dataq access. In fact, the VB.Net programmers
don't even have to know a DataQ is involved.
