The best answer is most likely ODBC. 

You will probably get more and/or better answers over on the IBM i open source list at midrange dot com ... opensource@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ...

If you are not already subscribed to that list, you will need to do so first.

Hope that helps,

I am playing with a concept and I need to connect to and IBM i database with
a C#.Net desktop program.  Pretty much everything I have found via Google is
either 10 years old or involves configuration on the PC (something about
db2cli writecfg).  Other databases such as MySQL have a .dll that allows
connection without any PC config.  Does such a thing exist for the IBM i and
I just haven't hit the right web page?  What is the preferred method of
connecting from a C#.Net program?
