Dieter is correct. I also plan to use the JDBC as the medium and the
selection is always done on the remote system.

For all contributing here, many are missing the point that I cannot do
anything on the remote system other than run READ commands. So creating
extract files etc. is not possible.

Cognos' problem is probably that it is developed in MS SQL and MS SQL uses
the basic Select on the call to the remote system. I had this problem
several years ago and changed the selects to use FROMQUERY a MS SQL command
which passes the string command to Db2 which selects the records on the
remote system and only returns the selected data.

Since I just demonstrated my method below for copying works, I don't
understand why you would not use it?

Then why, in our Cognos environment, were we getting abysmal performance
connecting from those servers to Db2 until we changed the statements to
openquery type things?

... the database monitor could give you the answer, or paying two days to
teach by example how to use it, I could give you the answer.
