Hi Everyone

I am trying to figure something out and I thought one of you might be

able to help me…

Our company’s Web Support Team has been wanting to use Microsoft’s

Entity Framework http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/data/ef.aspx to

access data on our IBMi (IBMi DB2 V7R1 on a Power6 box).

Apparently the IBM Navigator ODBC driver isn’t providing the

connectivity they require.

Has anyone implemented something like this successfully? If so, I’d

sure like to know how you did it.

I have read in places something about a product called DB Connect, but

it isn’t cheap and there wasn’t any specific information relating to

DB2 on IBMi …
