Re: db access to iseries from pc's via ?

Thanks for all the feedback. Im am getting closer to what i want. In testing, i created the following sql:

SELECT * FROM TABLE (QSYS2.ACTIVE_JOB_INFO('NO','','','')) A,
              TABLE(QSYS2.GET_JOB_INFO(JOB_NAME)) B
where b.V_SQL_STATEMENT_TEXT <> ' '

This does a great job returning what i need, but i dont want to run this 24x7. I only need to run this when a user tries to access DB2 with an external program such as access, Vb program, etc. I like the idea of using and exit program. I see a plethora of options for this. Is there one i should focus on such as QIBM_QZDA_SQL1 that will allow me to get the info i need?

Subject: db access to iseries from pc's via ?

is there a way of telling who is connecting to the iseries db using things like access, excel, etc?

i want to be able to control these functions. I believe all our users have odbc set up as part of client access install.
