A Java call can do it - but you need that expertise (and set up and
verify the runtime environment).

Any other ideas, anyone?

Subject: Connecting to SQL Server

Hi everyone. I have project that requires information from a SQL server
back
to the AS/400 in my program. I have never had the need to connect to an
external server to retreive information back for my programs before. So
my
question is:

What is the best way to connect to the server in my program? I was
leaning
towards using an SQL statement in my CL program. Does anyone have a
sample
of a connection string that I could use as a guide? Or is there a better

method.

The program logic will be the user will an item number in the AS/400 it
will
then merge information from the DB2 and the SQL server and present it on
the
screen or a report.

Any help will be appreciated. Thank you

Jeff Williams
