Re: Alternatives to ODBC Connections

Client Access support OLE DB and .NET drivers. The best would probably be
.NET drivers but hard to say. Problem is probably not type. We have
simplifier problems using OLEDB. Seems to be tied to what kind of I/O the
applications are running.

Hi All,

Does anyone know if there are any alternatives to an ODBC connection
through ASP code or a dot.net program? We're noticing an increased
problem with our programs and the dreaded QZDASOINIT job (many of them!)
monopolizing the CPU usage quite often.

Right now most of the programs use code similar to this:

Set adoCon400 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
adoCon.Open "Provider=IBMDA400.DataSource.1;Persist Security
Info=False;User ID=<Ourid>;Password=<ourpassword>;Data Source=<ourAS400>"
Set recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
strSQL = "<our SQL statement>"
recordset.open strSQL, adoCon400
....do something with the results....
Recordset.close
Set recordset = nothing

That might have been fine and dandy when we didn't have many web
applications, but now we have a lot more web applications running through
IIS (Server 2008R2 64bit) and it appears to impact the system's performance.

Any helpful ideas or advice would be most appreciated.

Thankee-sai!
